Just stumbled upon the following article, which mentioned that a soccer/football manager has coached 27 teams in his career so far!! Is that some sort of world record? http://www.goal.com/en-sg/news/3880...simunic-i-helped-to-develop-bruneian-football
Have tried to google a bit myself, the only related article I found was: http://www.statbunker.com/football/k...statType=M_MAN The highest record in England so far is 8, by Dave Bassett: Leicester City Southampton Watford MK Dons Barnsley Sheffield United Nottingham Forest Crystal Palace What's the record in MLS / the World?
From this list, looks like Thomas Rongen is the record holder in MLS with 4 teams: http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/List_of_MLS_coaches Code: Thomas Rongen Netherlands Chivas USA 2005 2005 Thomas Rongen Netherlands D.C. United 1999 2001 Thomas Rongen Netherlands N.E. Revolution 1997 1998 Thomas Rongen Netherlands Tampa Bay Mutiny 1996 1996
Excellent find!! Wikipedia has included 39 teams (18 national sides + 21 club sides), between 1955-2003. Simply remarkable...
The German wikipedia has a more complete list: http://de.wikipedia.org/wiki/Rudi_Gutendorf Gutendorf is well known in Germany, so it wasn't that hard to find him .
It's not a complete list from what I can see. Just among current managers Tony Pulis and Danny Wilson have both managed 7 clubs, Sam Allardyce 8 (not 5 as listed), Martin Allen 9, Micky Adams 11 (9 different clubs), Neil Warnock 13 and Roy Hodgson 15 different clubs (Inter twice) and 4 national teams. Obviously nowhere close to Gutendorf, though.
