New coaching team arrive in Fehervar

Videoton have agreed three year contracts with Joan Carrillo Milan, who will be the first team coach and Ignacio Torreno Jarabo, who will be stamina and fitness coach

"Nacho" Torreno Jarabo had already visited the club, together with Paulo Sousa last week, taking photos of the facilities and getting used to the new surroundings. Nacho will work on the stamina and strength of the players, trying to get them into peak fitness ahead of the new season. He also made no secret of his admiration for the facilites at the Puskas Academy in Felcsut. He had earlier worked at Espanyol and spent the last few days on holiday with his wife in Turkey. He also played in a farewell match in Barcelona yesterday, and arrives in Fehervar full of excitement at the task ahead.

Joan Carrillo Milan arrives to Videoton having been a coach at Spanish first division side Espanyol. Milan, who is 42 years old, is married with three children. He had earlier been a scout for the Spanish side, but moved up to become first team coach with them last season. Paulo Sousa asked him to join him in his new challenge in Fehervar, which he accepted. The full coaching team looks likely to be completed during the coming week. The first team squad are currently on holiday, but they will report back for pre-season training on the 9th June.
