In a shocking turn of events, Stefano Cugurra, also known as Teco, has stepped down from his position as the head coach of Bali United. The news came as a surprise to many fans and followers of the Indonesian football club, as Teco had been at the helm of the team for the past two years.
Teco’s decision to resign from his position comes after a series of disappointing performances by Bali United in the recently concluded Liga 1 season. The team failed to secure a spot in the top four, which would have granted them a place in the AFC Champions League next season. This failure to meet expectations ultimately led to Teco’s resignation.
During his time as the head coach of Bali United, Teco achieved some notable successes. Under his guidance, the team won the Liga 1 title in 2019 and the Indonesian President’s Cup in 2020. Teco’s tactical acumen and leadership skills were praised by many in the football community, and he quickly became a fan favorite among Bali United supporters.
In a statement released by the club, Teco expressed his gratitude for the opportunity to coach Bali United and thanked the players, staff, and fans for their support during his tenure. He also wished the team continued success in the future.
The search for a new head coach for Bali United is now underway, with the club’s management reportedly considering several candidates to fill the vacant position. The next head coach will have big shoes to fill, as Teco’s departure leaves a void in the team’s leadership and tactical direction.
As fans come to terms with Teco’s departure, many are left wondering what the future holds for Bali United. Will the team be able to bounce back from this setback and reclaim their position as one of the top clubs in Indonesian football? Only time will tell, but one thing is for certain – Teco’s legacy at Bali United will not be forgotten.
