New Southampton head coach Ivan Juric is ready to transform the team to play in his own style, similar to the high-flying Atalanta.

Juric has confirmed he is ready to bring his own style of play, similar to Atalanta coach Gian Piero Gasperini, who was his former boss when he played as a midfielder at Crotone and Genoa.

“It’s a high-pressing style of play. What I want from the team is high competitiveness, strength, and as time goes by, we will get better in ball possession and attacking play.”

“Maybe people don’t know the way I played at Torino or Verona because we didn’t play European games,”

“But the style is the same as Atalanta and you watch games against Arsenal or Liverpool. We have to press high, play well and be better in every way,” said Juric. Who began his coaching career as Gasperini’s right-hand man.

Juric is excited to take charge of a Premier League club after a disastrous two months at Roma before being sacked.

“I’m delighted to be here. The Premier League is the best league in the world. And it’s a great opportunity to see the best players and the best stadiums.” Juric said after signing for Southampton.

“I got the call two years ago. That’s when โปรโมชั่น ufabet I first started thinking about Southampton. I was still coaching Torino at the time and I stayed there,” he said.

“I follow the games all the time. Last year I was very interested in Southampton. I know a lot of the players. It’s not like two years ago because I watched the games more on TV.”
