Former Ballon d'Or winner, Czech footballer Pavel Nedved has returned to his homeland and taken the position of director general for all Czech national teams. This was reported by Euro-football.ru.
Although the Czech national team achieved good results at the peak of Nedved's career, the team is currently going through a deep period of decline. Nedved's experience and knowledge are expected to provide significant assistance to the team at this time.
The former player previously worked for a long time at Turin's Juventus club, even serving as the club's vice president for a period. Now, he faces entirely new tasks and responsibilities. Recently, the Czech national team lost to Croatia 1:5 in the qualifying match for the 2026 World Cup.
At the same time, the youth team faced unexpected failure at the European Championship held in Slovakia. These situations indicate that the workload and the number of tasks that Nedved has ahead of him are quite substantial.
Now, he is expected to carry out effective measures to restore Czech football and lift it out of decline. We hope that his leadership skills will bring a new stage of development to the national teams.
