Ricardo Moniz (born 17 June 1964 in Rotterdam) is a Dutch football coach of FC Red Bull Salzburg[1] and former football player.

Career

He played for RKC Waalwijk, HFC Haarlem, Helmond Sport and FC Eindhoven.[2]

Coaching career

He was formerly a skills trainer at Tottenham Hotspur Football Club,[3] leaving the club in May 2008 after three seasons.[4]

Moniz is one of the few proteges of the skills training guru Wiel Coerver which is aimed at improving technical ability over tactical ability.[5] He was previously academy coach at PSV Eindhoven.[6]

On June 8, 2008, he signed a new contract to be the new skills and talent coach next to head coach Martin Jol at Hamburger SV.[7] On 26 April 2010, he was named the interim coach by Hamburger SV, replacing Bruno Labbadia for the last two games in the season 2009/2010.[8][9] After the resignations of Huub Stevens and Dietmar Beiersdorfer on April 8, 2011, Moniz was named the new head coach of FC Red Bull Salzburg.[10][11]
