THE QUEST FOR EUROPEAN DOMINANCE - A RED STAR BELGRADE STORY
Welcome to my new story. I have chosen to manage Red Star Belgrade (also known as Crvena zvezda), the peoples club of Serbia. Having just managed for 20 seasons in my UEFA Champions League Challenge I have missed developing a legacy at just 1 club and developing young talent and nurturing them through and I have chosen to try life in Serbia. Now in my UCL Challenge save after 18-19 seasons Red Star had developed the most players in the top leagues in Europe so that has piqued my interest too!
The aim for the story is quite simple. Take Red Star back to the top of European football since they won the European Cup 30 years ago by winning the UEFA Champions League and then go on to become the most reputable team in Europe. In conjunction with this I also want to lead Serbia to international glory too!!!!
Sounds simple lol.
So lets meet the manager................
NEMANJA VIDIC
A Red Star graduate, Vidic spent 4 years with the club at the beginning of his career making 95 apps and scoring 16 goals and won 1 league title and 1 cup in the process. The centre-back was then sold to Spartak Moscow where he spent 2 years before being sold to Manchester United for £7m.
It was there that he became one of the best defenders in the world. Between 2006-14 he made 300 apps, scored 21 goals and won 5 league titles, 3 league cups, 5 Community Shields, the Champions League and a Club World Cup!! At the end of his contract he joined Inter Milan however he only made 28 appearances (scoring once) before retiring after 1 season in Italy.
For his country he earned 3 caps for FR Yugoslavia, 17 caps (1 goal) for Serbia and Montenegro and 36 caps (1 goal) for Serbia so in total it was 56 caps and 2 goals! lol.
