"I don't watch the games of the Azerbaijan national team, but I look at the results. I can say that the team's results have not been good in the last 2-3 years."
This was stated by Robert Prosinečki, who was the head coach of the Azerbaijan national football team in 2014-2017, in an interview with AZERTAC.
We present that interview:
- Are you interested in Azerbaijani football?
- I currently have no contact with AFFA. But I am interested in Azerbaijani football. I am not working anywhere now. My last job was with the Montenegrin national team.
- Although there have been several head coach changes in the Azerbaijan national team after you, there is no significant difference in the team's results. That is, the results are still not at the desired level...
- I don't watch the games of the Azerbaijan national team, but I look at the results. I can say that the team's results have not been good in the last 2-3 years.
- What can you say about the current head coach of the national team, Aykhan Abbasov? Do you think the national team can achieve success under his leadership?
- Unfortunately, I can't tell you anything about that. As I mentioned, I follow the results, not the games.
- After Fernando Santos was dismissed, your name was mentioned again with the Azerbaijan national team. Have you received an offer from AFFA?
- I have not received any offers.
- It would also be interesting to know your opinion about "Qarabag's" performance in the Champions League this season...
- "Qarabag" has achieved great success in the last 10 years. Gurban Gurbanov is doing serious work in the team. They are also making an excellent impression in the Champions League this season. They drew 2:2 with a team like "Chelsea". These are very good results. I wish "Qarabag" success in the next games.
- Do you miss Azerbaijan, Baku?
- Baku is a very beautiful city. I lived there for 3 years. I also have many friends in Azerbaijan. I contact them from time to time.
