(Seoul = Yonhap News) Reporter Lee Eui-jin = “It seems like the coach’s mission is to prove it through ‘football.'”

Julio César, a former Brazilian national team goalkeeper, who heard regarding the ‘controversy surrounding the foreign affairs’ surrounding national soccer team coach Jurgen Klinsmann, expressed the opinion that ‘there is no problem’.

At a press conference held at the Fairmont Ambassador Hotel in Yeouido, Seoul on the followingnoon of the 11th, Cesar heard regarding the situation of coach Klinsmann, who does not reside in Korea, and said, “This is my personal opinion. Whether overseas or in Korea, we just have to prove it through soccer.”

Cesar, who recently heard Coach Klinsmann explain the situation of Korean soccer, which has been criticized for frequent outings, said, “It is a cautious topic,” but added, “There must have been something related to it when the coach and his division signed a contract with the Korea Football Association.”

He added, “I don’t think there will be any major problems if we prove it through soccer, but there seems to be some doubts.”

Cesar played for Inter Milan (Italy) for seven seasons, winning the Italian Serie A five times and the UEFA Champions League (UCL) once. In particular, in the 2009-2010 season, he led Inter Milan’s treble (triple crown).

He also played 87 international matches wearing the Brazilian national team uniform.

Cesar and former Italian defenders Gianluca Zambrotta and Massimo Oddo met with domestic reporters to promote the ‘Legends All-Star Game’ held at Goyang Stadium on October 21.

When reporters asked whether they might evaluate Coach Klinsmann’s recent controversy from an ‘international perspective,’ not only Cesar but also the other two players expressed their opinions one by one.

Ohdo said, “We are all adults. We take responsibility and do what we think is right. Leading the national team is not an easy task, but Korean national team players will also be active overseas and it is not something we have to see every day.”

He added, “It’s difficult to answer. I respect that because the person concerned thought it was right.”

Zambrotta said, “Leading the national team and a regular club team are different. Still, the reason Coach Klinsmann is acting the way he is now is probably because he talked regarding it in advance when signing the contract,” adding, “He also probably has the intention of traveling to various countries to study and check the players’ condition. “He said.

He said, “Of course, I understand the intention of the question, but there must be a reason.”

Zambrotta played as the starting right back at the 2006 World Cup in Germany and led his country to victory. Oddo, who played for AC Milan from 2007 to 2012, is also a member of Italy’s World Cup winning team in Germany.

This event is hosted by Lasing City Group. Founded in 2018, Racing City Group is conducting soccer business mainly in Europe, South America, and the Middle East.
