According to the report of the Uzbekistan Football Association, a number of candidates for the position of the national team head coach have been studied and analyzed.
Negotiations have been conducted with experienced local and foreign specialists. Furthermore, recommendations presented by the coaches' council have also been thoroughly considered.
Considering the short time left before the decisive matches of the World Cup qualifiers, someone who is closely familiar with the team and players, has played for the national team for many years, and has served as a head coach and assistant coach.
The candidacy of Timur Kapadze, who achieved a historic result with the Uzbekistan Olympic team, has been put forward.
"In the current situation, the UFA trusts in Kapadze's coaching talent, responsibility, standing among team members, and his constant aspiration towards high goals to bring positive results in important matches.
These days, the Uzbekistan national team is holding a camp in Qatar. Timur Kapadze will join this camp and take over the management of the team," - says the UFA report.
