Triestina has entered the 2024/25 season with a clear goal: to do everything possible to advance to Serie B. After ten matches, the top of the Serie C standings seems far away. Triestina is currently second to last in the table, having celebrated victory only once so far! It’s not surprising that a change has occurred in the coaching staff. What is interesting, however, is who will lead the team going forward: Triestina has been taken over by Catalan coach Pep Clotet, who brings a wealth of interesting and diverse football experience to the city near the Slovenian border.
The 47-year-old Pep Clotet, born in Barcelona, most recently managed Moscow’s Torpedo, and before that, he was at the helm of Brescia. He has also worked with SPAL, Swansea City (brought to Wales by the famous Michael Laudrup), Birmingham City, Oxford United, the Spanish club Atletico Malagueno, Halmstad, and Espanyol.
Now, the Tristina club will be looking to turn things around, with assistance from Slovenian players. The captain of the Reds is former national team defender Aljaž Struna, who is joined in the squad by Daniel Pavlev and Nik Čebulj. Also part of the Triestina squad is Omar Correia, who previously played in the 1. SNL for Koper.
