SOC:Ange's old Japanese powerhouse goes for an Aussie again

Steve Corica Ange Postecoglou Harry Kewell Kevin Muscat Yokohama Yokohama F Marinos ALeague Auckland (Organization)

Steve Corica has swapped A-League champions Auckland FC for Yokohama F Marinos, becoming the latest notable Australian to coach the Japanese club.

Corica was appointed Auckland's inaugural coach for the 2024/25 season.

Auckland captured the league's most coveted piece of silverware in their second season with an ironic 1-0 triumph over Sydney FC, the club that sacked Corica as head coach in 2023.

The victory in May marked the first time a New Zealand club had won an A-League grand final.

Corica replaces ⁠Hideo Oshima, who took charge of Yokohama in ​June last year but was dismissed this month after the club finished seventh in Group A of the J1 League.

In the past eight years, fellow Australians Ange Postecoglou, Kevin Muscat, Harry Kewell and Patrick Kisnorbo have had stints coaching the Japanese powerhouse.
