JAKARTA Persib Bandung officially appointed Bojan Hodak as the new coach. The Croatian tactician filled the place that Luis Milla previously left.

Maung Bandung announced the name of their new coach through the club's official website on Wednesday, July 26, 2023 morning WIB.

"We have made an agreement with this coach and today announced it," said Deputy CEO of PT Persib Bandung with dignity Teddy Tjahjono in an official statement.

Hodak is a Croatian passport coach who previously handled Malaysian club Kuala Lumpur FC. The coach who was born in Zagreb, May 4, 1971 is expected to increase the level of play and achievements of Persib Bandung.

"We hope that, together with this new coach, Persib Bandung can rise up to pursue our initial target of the top four," said Teddy.

Hodak is not a foreign name in national football. Before training Kuala Lumpur FC, he had handled PSM Makassar in Liga 1 in 2020. However, his work with PSM was quite short because the competition had to be stopped due to the COVID-19 pandemic.

In addition to the Malaysian Cup runners-up this season, Hodak managed to lead the FA and Johor Darul Ta'zim (JDT) to become the 2012 and 2014 Malaysian Super League champions.

He also tasted the Malaysian FA Cup and Malaysia Cup titles with Kelantan FA in 2012 and 2013. Meanwhile, when he played in the Cambodian League, Hodak also led Phnom Penh Crown to become a champion in 2011.
