Laurent Blanc has already signed with Al Ittihad and was officially presented by the Al Ittihad club today

He didn't manage to win the European Champions League as coach of PSG in the 3 years he was coach of PSG, he also doesn't see great things coming from him as coach of Olympique Lyon, so I wouldn't create high expectations about how his performance will be. next season as coach of Al Ittihad, but at least the Arabs are making good choices when it comes to choosing coaches to improve the quality of the Saudi league. I hope that next season Al Hilal will be champions again

Laurent Blanc's experience when he was still an active player cannot be doubted and with France he has even won the Euros and the World Cup. At club level, he has also won all the titles and he has also played for several big teams in Europe. However, his experience as a coach is not that good, but at least with PSG he always won so many titles in French competitions. The Champions League is not an easy thing for a coach like him and I think that is normal.

Apart from that, I think Al-Ittihad was quite right in choosing him as the new coach and I think he was very right in choosing to join Al-Ittihad. Previously, it was predicted that Stefano Pioli would become Al-Ittihad's coach, but it seems that a final agreement was not reached and therefore Al-Ittihad is lucky enough to still be able to get another European coach here.

At SPL level, I think Laurent Blanc will still be a very reliable coach. In fact, I also feel that Al-ittihad was lucky because they succeeded in bringing in Laurent Blanc. What I hope is that this time the coach can get along better with Benzema. Because we know that the two previous coaches always seemed to not get along with Benzema. Which resulted in the two coaches finally being fired from al-ittihad. At least a coach who has handled PSG would know better how to treat a star player like Benzema. And I expect good results for this team next season.
