V průběhu posledních dnech The Saints jednali s jiným kandidátem, a to Dannym Röhlem ze Sheffieldu Wednesday ze druhé anglické nejvyšší soutěže. Tenhle muž ale na St Mary's Stadium nedorazí.
Vedení klubu nakonec sehnalo jiného kandidáta, a to poměrně rychle. Rodák ze Splitu, který do této chvíle působil na trenérské úrovni výhradně v Itálii, kývl na nabídku pár týdnů poté, co završil své krátké angažmá u Giallorossi.
Smlouva mezi Southamptonem a Juričem by měla být podepsána ještě před víkendem. Ústně jsou zúčastněné strany domluvené na podmínkách kontraktu, zbývá doladit už jen pár formalit.
Jurič zatím své nejúspěšnější období prožíval v Turínu FC, kde působil mezi lety 2021 až 2024, než ho zlákala nabídka z hlavní italské metropole. Předtím vedl ještě Hellas, Janov, Crotone a Mantovu.
