As some of Europe’s most well-known managers near the end of their careers, the question of who will take their place at the continent’s biggest clubs arises. With managers like Jürgen Klopp, Pep Guardiola, Jose Mourinho, and Carlo Ancelotti entering the final stages of their careers, up-and-coming coaches are ready to make their mark.
In Spain, Mikel Arteta and Xabi Alonso are showing promising signs of becoming great coaches, with their football styles and early managerial successes drawing comparisons to Guardiola. Alonso’s impressive undefeated season with Bayer Leverkusen and reaching the Europa League final have made a strong case for his coaching abilities.
Germany also has young talent emerging, such as Fabian Hürzeler, who at just 31 years old, led St. Pauli to promotion from the second division last season. In Italy and Portugal, other young managers are also making waves, proving that European football is in good hands despite the imminent retirements of established coaches.
With Klopp’s absence on the touchline for Liverpool’s recent match, the spotlight is now on the next generation of managers who are ready to step up and lead their clubs to success. As the old guard bows out, a new era of coaching talent is set to take the stage in European football.
