Revolution's championship stamp
Clubs around the world might do well to seriously consider former New England Revolution players in
their coaching searches.
Walter Zenga blazed the trail, guiding Steaua Bucharest to the Romanian title in 2005. The next
year, Zenga coached Red Star Belgrade to the Serbia championship.
Last year, three former Revolution players -- Leonel Alvarez, Chiquinho Conde and Mauricio Wright
-- coached championship teams in their home countries:
-- Alvarez (Deportivo Independiente Medellin) performed for the Revolution from 1999-2001;
-- Conde, who scored six goals in 17 Revolution appearances in 1997, took over Ferroviario with 13
games remaining in the season and guided it to both the Mozambique cup and league titles;
-- Wright, a Revolution defender in 2000-01, led Brujas FC to the Costa Rica championship.
