The issue of unlicensed coaches has become a hotly debated topic in the Super League, and Bohdan Lobonc also spoke about the situation in which many coaches in Romania found themselves.

Bohdan Lobonts, a harsh statement against coaches without a PRO license in the Super League

Invited to the “Profu’ de Sport” podcast, the former coach of the Romanian youth football team Bohdan Lobonc spoke about the problem of unlicensed coaches in the Romanian championship.

“They all want to become coaches tomorrow. No, dad, you need school to be a coach! Everyone wants fast. But when you went to school, did you start from grade 12? Or first? You need time.

OK, a lot of people say, “Oh, he was a high-level player and oh, well, he knows his job, he knows that.” No, that’s different. That’s what school is for, to learn.

What if after I turn 18 and I know how to drive because my father taught me how to drive a tractor, I get behind the wheel and drive on national roads, what will the police do to me? He gives me a fine of 40,000 euros? No, I get a criminal record. If – God forbid! “I have another accident, something worse happens, I risk going to prison.” – said Kotyk, reports GSP.

In addition, the former Romanian great also spoke about the steps taken to obtain the licenses needed to train.

Bohdan Lobonts gave the example of Pep Guardiola, who passed all the necessary stages and is today one of the most successful coaches in the world.

“From 2019 until now, I have obtained an A and UEFA Pro license. In 2014, I was the first generation at the “Kunst Ghermănescu” school, where I took a course to obtain a trainer’s card. That based on the trainer card you can then register to get all your licenses.

So 2014-2023 is how many years? Nine years until I get my Pro license. Day 8: I got my Pro License in Coverciano in the summer. You must take these steps!

Everyone dreams of Guardiola, who went from the second team to the first and showed super performances. But we forget that Pep took all the steps, got all his licenses and first coached the season at Barcelona B. – said Bohdan Lobont.

FCSB, still without a coach with a PRO license

The situation in the FCSB was the cause of this controversy in Romanian football.

Mihai Pintilius has been suspended for sitting on the bench in Super League matches, even though he does not have a licence, and the Romanian runners-up have also been fined for doing so.

The Reds and Blues tried to find more solutions in this matter, including offering Valentin Iliev, who refused to lead the Super League team.
