Rinat Bilyaletdinov: “The desire to coach remains. Maybe there will be an option that suits everyone.”

Russian coach Rinat Bilyaletdinov spoke about his desire to return to the work of head coach, but noted that he has no offers yet.

The 66th specialist worked as a head coach at Rubin, SKA-Khabarovsk, Lokomotiv and Khimki.

— Are there any offers to become a head coach? They are not spoken about out loud because there are many incoming moments. A preliminary agreement or negotiation does not mean it is final. In general terms, the parties discuss goals and objectives and take time to think. Of course, any coach wants to use his knowledge and experience, but now is a time when juggling with coaches has become widespread: work for two or three months – goodbye. I will soon celebrate 30 years of coaching, everything has happened: successful facts, but also when it didn’t work out the way I wanted.

The desire to coach remains. Maybe an option will suddenly appear that suits everyone, but it happens when the decision takes several months to mature. It is also necessary that the team be staffed according to the coach’s idea. For me, the league in which I will coach is, of course, important, but not very important. Even at the amateur or media level, you want the team to win something. It is clear that the RPL is a priority for everyone, but in Russia there are 20–30 times more suitable coaches than there are teams there. The main thing is not to lose taste, there are examples: Semin, Gadzhiev, Berdyev,” Bilyaletdinov is quoted as saying by “Championship”.
