Vítor Campelos leaves Celje coaching position

SAPO14 September 2026 at 16:50

Vítor Campelos left the coaching position at Celje, the Slovenian football club. The Portuguese coach and the club's structure reached a separation agreement after divergences between both parties.

The differences of opinion between the coach and Celje's board were the factor that led to the divorce. The disagreement is said to have been related to sports management matters and methodological approach.

Campelos had taken charge of the Slovenian team with the objective of fighting for top places in the local league. During his tenure, the expectations of the club's structure were not fully met by the work of the Portuguese coach.

With this departure, Celje now faces the need to find a new coach to guide the team for the remainder of the season. The name of Vítor Campelos thus joins the list of Portuguese coaches who end experiences abroad prematurely.

Why this matters

The divorce between Campelos and Celje represents a significant change in the sporting leadership of the Slovenian club, leaving the team without their head coach mid-season. The fans and players of Celje will be directly affected by this change, which comes as a result of disagreements between the coach and the club's board.
