Coaching career

Alongside fellow Slovenian Ermin Šiljak, Sejdinovski became one of Bulgarian top-tier championship contenders PFC Botev Plovdiv assistant coaches in July 2015,[1] specializing in video examination and scrutinizing the teams and players performances using software.[2] His contract as assistant was officially ended on 10 November 2015.[3] Before going to Bulgaria, the coach helped train and oversee the U17 team of Saudi giants Al-Hilal, making fastidious efforts in order to prepare them well for games as well and to rest them for school examinations.[4]

Served in FC Koper's youth department from June 2016[5] to October 2017.[6]

Philosophy

While working with Al-Hilal's U17 team, Sejdinovski believed that giving players step-by-step technical, tactical, physical and mental training was paramount and applied a match preparation system similar to that of a professional club in order to ease the transition into full-time football.[7] Sejdinovski believes that not allowing a parents child to play sports supposing academic performance falters is important as they will learn from their mistakes.[8]

The Slovenian has expressed disappointment in the football development in Asia.[8]
