Dreams FC Head Coach, Abdul Karim Zito, has poured out his admiration for Pep Guardiola’s philosophy as a coach, but also highlighted that he does not like him as a “person”.
The Spaniard who is currently in charge of Manchester City, are the reigning premier league Champions in the English Premier League and also guided the team to a first treble last season usurping rivals Manchester United who achieved that feat under former Manager Sir, Alex Ferguson in the 1999 season.
Abdul Karim Zito is regarded as one the finest brains in Ghana football, having led Ghana’s U-20 team to the AFCON success in Mauritania in 2021.
Kito, now in charge of premier league side Dreams FC is looking to etch his name in the history books of Ghana football and will now guide his side to face Club Africain of Tunisia in the first group game of the 2023/24 CAF Confed Cup on Sunday.
Speaking on TV3’s GPL EXPRESS, Zito declared his admiration for Guardiola’s tactics can not be hidden.
The person i admire in coaching is Pep Guardiola, but i don’t like him, but i like his philosophy, why becuase of where i started my career as a developer.
When you talk about coaches in the world, Pep is my coach like, in terms of the philosophy, but i don’t like him maybe because i am Real Madrid, i was a Barcelona fan but then Ronaldo left and when he joined Real Madrid i moved there.
Dreams FC will take on Club Africain from Tunisia on Saturday at the Stade Hammadi Agrebi, in Tunis in the first group game of the 2023/24 CAF Confederations Cup.
Dreams will later take on Nigerian side Rivers United & Academica do Lobito of Angola in the other two group games.
