Valladolid Appoint JIM To Replace Djukic

[Folami David]

Real Valladolid have appointed former Levante coach Juan Ignacio Martinez to replace Miroslav Djukic on a two-year contract with an option for a further year, the La Liga club said on Monday.
.
Known affectionately as JIM, Spaniard Martinez left Levante at the end of last season after the Valencia- based club decided not to extend his contract following an 11th-placed finish.
.
He will be presented to the media on Tuesday, Valladolid said on their website (www.realvalladolid.es).
.
The coaching job was vacant because Serb Djukic left at the end of last term to take over at Valencia, where he was once a player.
.
Former Sevilla, Deportivo La Coruna and Athletic Bilbao coach Joaquin Caparros has replaced Martinez at Levante.

Right now every good team needs a good coach to take them to the next level. Villadolid's decision makes sense.
