Thomas Letsch

Thomas Letsch interests me precisely because he's the kind of coach who built his name from the touchline rather than the pitch. A tall, unflashy figure out of the Stuttgart region, he reads to me as a craftsman manager who trusts structure and ideas over charisma. Landing the job at Red Bull Salzburg, a club that demands you win while developing young talent at speed, is no small endorsement of his methods. I tend to root for the cerebral, methodical types in football, and at his age he carries the kind of accumulated know-how that quietly makes squads better. I'll be watching where he goes next.
