Coach Flavio Raffo in Oman professional league
Personal life
Flavio is a modern football coach who has a good knowledge about the different fields of the game in the past and present time. He is known for his mature personality towards the fans and his opponents. He believes that physical fitness is the thing of utmost importance for all footballers which helps them establish a positive attitude within themselves. According to the Rome-born coach, if a player desires to win then he has to be both mentally and technically superior to others. His thoughts on football's future back in his home country, Italy are highly appreciable. He believes that the need of the hour is to restructure and re-plan the football schools in Italy with the aim of making a player better mentally, technically and physically instead of thinking of the financial profit. According to him, the work is hard but not impossible.
