When the Kansas City Comets announced Goran Karadzov as their new head coach last week, they continued the tradition of former players becoming assistants and then taking charge. Karadzov was an assistant for three years prior to stepping up to the lead role and takes over from his friend Vlatko Andonovski. Karadzov was also an assistant to Andonovski with two time NWSL champion FC Kansas City.
“It is a dream that is coming true for me,” Karadzov said. “Ever since I stopped playing I have been a coach and it was my dream to coach professionally and to do it with the Comets is special, they are family.
