Marius Șumudică, the current coach of Rapid , is strongly wanted by Kayserispor , a team in the Turkish first league, which the 53-year-old coach previously trained in the 2017-2018 period.
The Kayseri team is having a difficult season in Turkey. At the moment, the team, previously coached by both Marius Șumudică and Dan Petrescu, is in 17th place in the standings, the first position below the line.
With only 16 points accumulated after the first 18 matches, Kayserispor is tied on points with Bodrumspor, the team that is currently in 16th position, but also has an extra match played against the Kayseri team.
Kayserispor wants Marius Şumudića back
The poor results this season could be fatal for Sinan Kaloğlu, who is very close to being removed from the team’s helm.
According to GSP information, Kayserispor ‘s first choice to replace Kaloglu was Ismael Kartal, the former Fenerbahce coach , but he refused the job.
Thus, Kayseri have now reached the Marius Șumudică option, and according to those close to the Rapid coach , the Turks are putting great pressure on them to obtain the Romanian’s signature.
However, the same sources close to Marius Șumudică claim that he wants to secure a play-off spot for Rapid before considering any other offer.
Marius Şumudića also coached Kayserispor
If he were to join Kayserispor , it wouldn’t be the first time that Şumudića has coached this team. The Rapid coach also coached Kayseri in the 2017-2018 season, during which he played 39 matches in all competitions on the bench of the Turkish team, recording 18 wins, 12 losses and 9 draws.
