PTV - German coach Wolfgang
Sidka has announced his preliminary agreement to take charge of Iran's Saipa
Football Club for the next season.
“Sidka has agreed to coach Saipa and will soon travel to Tehran to finalize
the deal,” said Saipa's managing director, Hamid Sajjadi, on Friday.
“The club will sign a one-year contract with the German coach, who will
bring a goalkeeping coach with himself,” he added.
Saipa is slated to hold a 10-day camp in the German city of Frankfort in
late June.
Sidka, the former Bahrain boss, replaces Ali Daei, who left Saipa to take
over the Iranian national soccer team.
The 54-year-old Sidka is a former association football manager. He led SV
Werder Bremen to victory in the UEFA Intertoto Cup in 1998 and coached
Bahrain's national soccer team in 2005.
