The legendary Cannavaro has had a stellar career with Juventus, Real Madrid and other European giants, and as captain of the Italian national team that won the 2006 World Cup, he was also honored with the Ballon d'Or award. In the Chinese Super League, he was at the helm of Tianjin Quanjian and Guangzhou Evergrande, and briefly coached the Chinese men's soccer team, where he made a name for himself.
In Italy, Cannavaro was briefly in charge of Serie B team Benevento, but due to poor performance, he failed to complete his five-month term before leaving. Udinese, on the other hand, was in relegation crisis after 32 rounds of matches with only 4 wins, so Cannavaro was appointed to the post, and after his appointment, the team went undefeated for 5 consecutive rounds and successfully relegated, which was a remarkable achievement.
Udinese failed to renew Cannavaro's contract and after six months of inactivity, he moved to Dinamo Zagreb to replace Belica, who was dismissed due to the team's poor performance. Despite Dinamo Zagreb finishing third in the league and only 24th in the Champions League group stage, Cannavaro's arrival has injected new energy into the team.
The first match against Arsenal and the second against AC Milan are two tough matches that will decide the fate of Dinamo Zagreb in the Champions League. Known for his rigorous and pragmatic style, focusing on defense and emphasizing team discipline, Cannavaro's arrival has undoubtedly brought new hope to the team. Facing the challenge, Cannavaro is ready to show his talent in the Champions League.
