Srna explained why Shakhtar appointed exactly Arda Turan.

The sports director of 'Shakhtar' Dario Srna discussed the reasons that prompted the club to appoint Arda Turan as the head coach. He noted that the 'miners' are not afraid of experiments and see a combination of energy and a desire to win in the Turkish specialist.

“The key factor was Turan's ambitious past,” Srna said in an interview with Marca.

Dario Srna emphasized that Turan successfully led the modest 'Eyupsor' to sixth place in the Turkish championship, close to participating in European competitions, but they were just one point short.

The general director of the 'miners' specifically noted the ease of reaching an agreement. The negotiations were limited to discussions about football and planning the future project, without unnecessary formalities or conflicts. Srna said that everything was decided with one phone call.

Dario emphasized that Turan combines the qualities of Simeone in defense and Luis Enrique in attack, giving the team an advantage. It is also important that the Turkish coach's work plan is supported by an experienced coaching staff, and Turan himself 'feels the players'. This ability, in Srna’s opinion, is very valuable and rare.

The sports director of 'Shakhtar' explained that the appointment of Arda Turan as head coach was due to his successful experience at 'Eyupsor' and the club's desire to bolster the team with new ideas and style of play. The newcomer must combine the best qualities of renowned coaches and have support from a well-coordinated coaching staff, which is intended to ensure a successful performance in upcoming tournaments.
