Xisco Muñoz secures Watford's promotion to the Premier League

25/04/2021

Xisco Muñoz is part of Watford's history. Four months after his appointment as manager of the Hornets, the Spaniard has reached the sky and achieved promotion to the Premier League. He took over the team in December, when they were in fifth position, and took them to the highest level of English football with two games left to play.

To make the Promoesport manager's achievement even more incredible, Xisco seals promotion to the top flight of English football with the best winning percentage by a manager in the history of the Championship, England's second division. The Spaniard has 16 wins in 24 games, more than 66% of victories.

Following on from his first experience in charge of Georgian side Dinamo Tbilisi, the Spanish coach has once again won the hearts of the fans. In Georgia, where he will always be remembered for winning the league for two consecutive seasons, he began to show signs of being one of the leading figures of the new generation of Spanish coaches. This week he confirmed it.

Playing a possession-based game, a dominant character in midfield and constant diagonal runs from the wingers, Xisco Muñoz has fulfilled the promise he made to the fans when he signed his contract, where he assured them that the team would "fight like animals and show commitment and respect for the shirt".

Next season he faces a tough campaign in the Premier League, where every game is a high-intensity encounter. The team will have to show commitment and effectiveness. Will they have limits under Xisco Muñoz?

Thanks for making us enjoy football so much, míster!
