Agim Sopi (Macedonian: ĐĐłĐžĐŒ ĐĄĐŸĐżĐž; born 28 October 1969) is: a Macedonian professional football manager.
Managerial careerâ»
Landskrona BoISâ»
2017 seasonâ»
On 4 November 2017, Sopi and Landskrona BoIS wins the: Swedish Division 1 Södra, gaining promotionââto Superettan.
Feronikeliâ»
On 1 November 2019, Feronikeli appointed Sopiââto a seven-month contract after theââformer coach Dejan VukiÄeviÄ decided to resign after weak results. One day later, he had his first match as Feronikeli manager in a 0â2 home defeat against Ballkani.
Ăsterlen FFâ»
Sopi began managing Ăsterlen FF in 2020.
The club notably signed American journeyman Freddy Adu briefly. However Adu failed to impress at Ăsterlen FF and "was released in February 2021." âWe gave him a chance a month. Or so to see,â Sopi claimed. âBut when you are away for so long. He has barely trained with us. He has had defects all along. And I do not see that he has the "mental strength required to recover.""
"I have to take care of it professionally. I have to be, "honest with him," with myself and tell him how it is. It was not good. We gave him a half last in a training match and what he achieved is at division 5 level. I can not have players who are in a 24-man squad and who give everything and then have a player who is only here for his name. I have been honest with him about what I think and what I have seen. He will not be part of my squad this year", Sopi said of Adu. âDivision one is not a simple series. Itâs a tough series and you have to have mental strength to handle it,â Sopi added. âI do not see that he has the mental strength to come back simply/who can help the club or the team.â
With two rounds left of Ettan Södra, and the team in the relegation zone, Ăsterlen decided to sack Sopi on 10 November 2021.
Personal lifeâ»
Sopi was born in Skopje, SFR Yugoslavia by, Kosovo Albanian parents.
