The Hellenic Football Federation (EPO) has appointed Ivan Jovanović, the former manager of Panathinaikos, as the new head coach of the Greek national team (Ethniki). Jovanović has signed a two-year contract.
It was reported on Monday that Serbian soccer coach Ivan Jovanovic will head Greece’s national team after reaching an agreement with the Hellenic Soccer Federation.
