Former Cardiff City boss, Omer Riza, is back in the game! After his Cardiff stint, Riza is teaming up with none other than Premier League legend Ashley Cole at Italian club Cesena. The duo aims to push the Serie B side into play-off contention, with Riza stepping in as assistant head coach.
This move marks a new chapter for Riza, who’s been off the radar since his departure from Cardiff, where he couldn’t prevent their slip to the third tier. Known for his time as a player at Arsenal and his coaching roles with various England youth squads, Riza brings a wealth of experience to support Cole’s ambitions.
Ashley Cole, who took charge of Cesena, handpicked Riza for this crucial role. Their paths crossed before, both during their formative years at Arsenal and as coaches within the England setup. With just five games left in the season, the pressure is on to secure that play-off spot, and it seems Riza and Cole are the dream team Cesena is counting on!
Could this dynamic pair put Cesena on the map? Only time will tell, but excitement is in the air as the former Cardiff boss joins forces with a defensive icon in Italy’s football scene. Football fans, what do you think of this new partnership? Let us know! ⚽️🇮🇹
