In a surprising development on the Romanian football scene, Željko Kopić has officially signed a contract to become the new manager of FC Botoșani. The Croatian tactician departs Dinamo București after a brief but eventful tenure, marking the beginning of a new chapter in his managerial career.
FC Botoșani confirmed the appointment in a statement released earlier today, welcoming Kopić as the man to lead the club forward following recent struggles in the Liga I campaign. The club’s management expressed confidence that his experience and tactical approach will bring renewed stability and ambition to the team.
Kopić, who previously coached in Croatia, Slovenia, and Romania, is known for his disciplined approach and strong emphasis on youth development. During his time at Dinamo, he was credited with stabilizing the club and improving overall team performance under difficult conditions.
“I’m honored to join FC Botoșani and excited for the challenges ahead,” Kopić said during his unveiling. “I believe in this project and the potential of the squad. Together, we will aim to bring pride and success to the fans.”
More details on his contract length and his immediate plans for the squad are expected to be revealed in the coming days.
