Levski coach Julio Velasquez will attack setting a record before the end of the year. This is a personal achievement for the 44-year-old specialist. So far, the Spaniard has 22 wins at the helm of the “blues“ (according to some data, the number is 23, since the number also includes the success on penalties over Hapoel Beer Sheva), reported "Mach Telegraf“.
Velasquez's best achievement at the helm of a team is 25 wins. He did this with Alcorcon, which he led in the period 2016-18 for 82 matches.
Levski coach has a chance to improve his achievement by the end of the calendar year, as his team has five matches ahead – four for the championship and one for the Bulgarian Cup. At first glance, and according to many, his task will not be that difficult. The reason is that the “blues“ have matches against rivals who are part of the second eight so far. Slavia is an exception.
Since the beginning of 2025, when he took charge of the “blues“, Velázquez has played 42 matches, in which he has won an average of 1.93 points per match. This is the best achievement in his career. In second place in his personal ranking in professional football is his stay in Betis (01.07-25.11.2014), when in 16 matches he took an average of 1.69 points per match.
