Sergej Jakirovic is the head coach of Hull City, who earned promotion to the Premier League by winning the Championship play-offs. His appointment at the MKM Stadium came at a time when the Tigers were looking for a clear plan and a fresh approach, and he delivered a return to the top flight.
Jakirovic is a coach who works on structure and collective organisation, asking his players to stay compact out of possession and attack with purpose when the chance comes. The move up brings a huge step in quality and intensity, and his squad will need the right reinforcements to compete.
