Sandi Sejdinovski (born 19 August 1963) is a UEFA "A" licensed Slovenian football coach who has worked in seven different countries: Slovenia, Brunei, Iran, Saudi Arabia, Bulgaria, Egypt, and Kuwait.

Coaching career

Alongside fellow Slovenian Ermin Šiljak, Sejdinovski became one of Bulgarian top-tier sides PFC Botev Plovdiv's assistant coaches in July 2015,[1] specializing in video examination of teams and players' performances.[2] His contract as an assistant was officially ended on November 10, 2015.[3] Before going to Bulgaria, the coach helped train and oversee the U17 team of the Saudi side Al-Hilal.[4]

He worked in FC Koper's youth department from June 2016[5] to October 2017.[6]

Philosophy

While working with Al-Hilal's U17 team, Sejdinovski believed that giving players step-by-step technical, tactical, physical, and mental training was paramount and applied a match preparation system similar to that of a professional club in order to ease the transition into full-time football.[7]

The Slovenian has expressed disappointment in Asia's football development.[8]
