Spain’s La Liga will kick off on 2022-2023 season on Friday, August 12, and fans of the teams can’t wait for that moment to arrive, hoping that their teams can achieve positive results and be among the favorites for the title.
The responsibility falls on the coaches, since not everyone is capable of managing large groups and for this new campaign, there are some who managed to stay and will seek to improve the performance of their teams.
Spanish soccer coaches will have to adjust their teams with the elements they already had and try to involve the reinforcements to achieve optimum performance, and that is where the challenge will begin. Here at JefeBet we present to you what we consider to be the best coaches for La Liga 2022-2023 season.
2022-2023 Season | Best Coaches in la Liga in Spain
Julen Lopetegui – Sevilla
The Spanish tactician has managed to do important things with Sevilla since he arrived in the 2019-20 season. He has kept the team fighting among the top positions, finishing in fourth place in the three seasons he has been in charge of the team.
In the 2021-22 season, Sevilla recorded 18 wins, 16 draws and four defeats in 38 league games. With the new elements that have joined the team, they will seek to improve their performance in search of their first title.
Manuel Pellegrini – Real Betis
Chilean Manuel Pellegrini will face his third season with Real Betis. He took over the team in the 2020-21 campaign and finished in sixth place. In the 2021-22 season, he focused on making improvements to his strategy and succeeded, as he managed to finish in fifth place, with 19 wins, eight draws and 11 losses in 38 games.
His work was reflected not only by improving the previous position in the overall ranking in the league tournament, but also because Betis came out on top in the Copa del Rey (King’s Cup). He has given solidity to the team and if he can maintain that balance he could improve his numbers.
Diego Simeone – Atlético de Madrid
Argentine Diego Simeone will face his 12th season at the helm of Atlético de Madrid. He has forged a history of success with the “Colchoneros” as his worst result was a fifth place finish in the first season he managed (2011-12). However, he has only been able to win two titles fighting with Real Madrid and Barcelona during his time with the red and white team.
In the 2021-22 season, his team finished in third place with 21 wins, eight ties and nine losses, the sixth season in which it finished in the stubborn position. He has remained one of the best strategists in Spanish football for a decade, and that is not expected to change this year.
Xavi Hernández – FC Barcelona
Since he was a player, Xavi Hernández showed he could be a great coach thanks to his intelligence on the field and his leadership, and now he is proving it. In November 2021, he began his first season in charge of the FC Barcelona dugout, managing a total of 26 league matches, in which he recorded 17 wins, five draws and four defeats. That record was enough to finish second.
Barça’s fans have every confidence that Xavi can get the team back to winning ways, and having seen his work in the 2021-22 campaign, it is hoped that his process can be successful.
Carlo Ancelotti – Real Madrid
Italian coach Carlo Ancelotti managed to win his first Spanish League with Real Madrid at his third attempt. Ancelotti had coached the “Merengue” in the 2013-14 and 2014-15 seasons, but finished in third and second place, respectively. This year, under the Italian tactician, Madrid recorded 26 wins, eight draws and four defeats in 38 games to win the title.
This new season, it is expected that the white team will continue with the good performance, especially after also being Champions League champions, so Ancelotti will continue to be one of the best coaches in La Liga.
