Carl Veart appointed coach of Australia's under-17 team
Don't miss out on the headlines from Football. Followed categories will be added to My News. 'Fatigued' after a lengthy and sometimes arduous stint as Adelaide United coach, Carl Veart is set for a much-needed reinvigoration in his new role in charge of Australia's under-17 team. Not offered a contract extension by Adelaide after five years as the club's A-League mentor, Veart's services were quickly up snapped by Football Australia, with his proven ability to develop and nurture young talent – including former Reds prodigy Nestory Irankunda – a key factor in his appointment. 'I (was) quite outspoken during my time at Adelaide about providing opportunities for young players,' Veart said on Monday from the Emerging Socceroos Championships in Bundoora. 'Before I was an A-League coach, I worked in this (youth) system for eight or nine years, working with those young players, so it's something that I'm very passionate about. 'I'm also very passionate about our national teams as well.' Veart, 55, said his new role had come at the 'right time' for him. 'I spent a long time in the A-League, and I started to fatigue with that a little bit, so this is a refresh for myself, and I'm really looking forward to the years ahead,' he said. 'The difference is now I'm working for tomorrow with young players. When you're working with senior players, it's all about the result and getting the result today. 'Now it's about providing these players with a strong platform to go on and have successful careers, and it's about giving them guidance and direction to what it takes to make that high level.' The former Socceroos striker was thrilled that several A-League clubs were giving younger players opportunities to shine. 'We've always said that up to 16-17 years of age, Australia does exceptionally well, and we needed to fix that gap from 17 to 20, and I think the A-League has done that, especially in the past 18 months,' Veart said. 'It's providing more opportunities for our younger players to get that exposure so they can develop quicker.'

Former Adelaide coach takes charge of Australia's Joeys
Former Adelaide United coach Carl Veart's renowned work with young talent has led to his appointment as coach of Australia's under-17 team. Veart will take over the Joeys after splitting with the Reds at the end of the last A-League Men season. The 55-year-old's record in fast-tracking a batch of young talent in Adelaide was pivotal in securing the job. "It's a fantastic opportunity to be involved in the national team pathway and contribute to the development of the next generation of Socceroos," Veart said in a statement on Friday. "I have had the privilege of working with many players at the beginning of their junior careers, watching them grow and develop as players for both club and country. "It gives me a great sense of pride to see not only their achievements on the pitch, but the young men they become off it." Veart, who coached United for five A-League Men's seasons, is a past assistant coach of the Joeys, in 2012, and also the national under-20 team. "We have complete confidence in Carl's ability to identify and nurture talent in a high-performance environment," Football Australia's interim chief executive Heather Garriock said. "The experience he brings from both the A-League, time previously with our junior national teams, and his coaching career within the South Australian development and pathway system, gives Carl a great perspective." Veart will select his first Australian under-17 squad in September for an international youth tournament in Japan. He replaces Brad Maloney, who stood down as Joeys coach last month.

Adelaide United appoint Brazilian-born head coach
Brazilian-born Airton Andrioli, who is long renowned in youth soccer circles, has been appointed coach of Adelaide United's A-League Men's team. Andrioli, the man behind the Reds' widely acclaimed youth program, has signed a two-year deal to replace Carl Veart. "I'm incredibly honoured and humbled to be given the opportunity," Andrioli said in a statement on Monday. "This is a very special moment in my life and something I won't take for granted. "My aim is to continue building on the strong foundations laid through our youth programs, providing young South Australians the opportunity to realise their dreams." Andrioli's promotion comes after being an assistant coach to Veart, and also the Reds' head of youth football since 2020. Before that, he spent a decade as Football South Australia's technical director and played a pivotal role in the state's acclaimed talent pathways. Andrioli, who played for West Adelaide in the National Soccer League (NSL) between 1994 and 1996, also had a stint as assistant coach with the Young Socceroos in 2015/16. United's technical director Ernest Faber said Andrioli was ideally suited to replace Veart, who split with the Reds after a five-year tenure. "Airton knows this club very well," Faber said. "He's the architect of our youth program, which is the lifeblood of Adelaide United and he's already played a significant role in the progress we've made over the past few years. "He'll continue the great work he's been doing, but in a different capacity - backing young players, playing attacking football, and building a strong team culture. "We believe Airton will help us grow steadily while staying true to the identity of Adelaide United." The Reds were tipped from this year's finals with a 3-2 loss to Western United in an elimination final.
