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, Kuwait).
Coaching career
Alongside fellow Slovenian Ermin Šiljak, Sejdinovski became one of Bulgarian top-tier sides PFC Botev Plovdiv assistant coaches in July 2015,[1] specializing in video examination of teams and players performances.[2] His contract as assistant was officially ended on 10 November 2015.[3] Before going to Bulgaria, the coach helped train and oversee the U17 team of 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] Sejdinovski believes that not allowing a parent's child to play sports supposing academic performance falters is important as they will learn from their mistakes.[8]
The Slovenian has expressed disappointment in the football development in Asia.[8]
