Carlos Corberan, Bielsa’s right-hand man at Leeds, is on the Piraeus list

His name, Carlos Corberan. The 39-year-old Spanish coach (born 7/4/1983) is according to his information SPORT24 the man who is on Olympiakos’ list to take over the technical leadership of Piraeus in the event of a divorce with Pedro Martins.

The man who found himself at the side of Marcelo Bielsa and learned the job at the side of a legend of the benches has stood out from the people of Piraeus.

The former manager of Huddersfield, with whom he came very close to promotion from the Championship to the Premier League, but lost in the promotion final to Vangelis Marinakis’ Nottingham Forest, has shown very good examples of writing, he is young and ambitious and that is why the Olympiakos management has him on their radar.

The tenure alongside Bielsa at Leeds

Three weeks ago, specifically on July 7, Corberan resigned and is now free.

THE Corberan started his coaching journey from Cyprus, when he was on the bench for Doxa Katokopia for eight games in the 2016/17 season, followed by Hermes Aradippou. There he got his first marks, until he moved to the Island.

He has been involved in coaching from a very young age, after he decided to stop his football career at the age of 23, reaching the Tercera División.
