Our ex-football player Peter Bernard Luccin (09/04/1979) has been named the new head coach of the excellent MLS team, FC Dallas. FC Dallasand his debut couldn’t have been better, as they won 2-0 2-0 win over St. Louis City S.C. against St. Louis City S.C.
The announcement of his appointment took place on June 9, and this signifies a big step for Peter in his coaching career.
The outstanding French assistant had been performing assistant coach duties since 2019, and thanks to his good work and enormous knowledge, he faces this new stage of his career with great enthusiasm.
Recall that Peter’s coaching stint began in 2015, when he took over the FC Dallas Academy, where he coached with the U-12, U-13 and U-14 categories.
He has gone through all the formative stages until he reached the first team, and after nine years at the club, he has been given this great opportunity that he is not going to miss.
As a soccer player, he had a brilliant career. The former FC Dallas midfielder began his career in professional soccer with AS Cannesfrom 1996 to 1997, after developing in French soccer academies. The Marseille native also played for FC Girondins de Bordeaux (1997-1998), Olympique de Marseille Olympique de Marseille (1998-2000) and Paris Saint-Germain (2000-2002), making 131 appearances in the French Ligue 1. In 2001, his career took him to Spain, when he was loaned to Spanish club Real Club Celta de Vigo. Celta de Vigo.
Peter Luccin left his mark in Spain thanks to his unquestionable talent and played for Celta Vigo (2002-2004), where his performance was outstanding.
His good performance led him to sign for Atlético de Madrid (2004-2007) and Real Zaragoza (2007-2010), where he was loaned out for one year to Racing Santander (2008-2009).
He completed a total of 285 games in Spanish soccer, where he proved to be an excellent footballer and a very outstanding player in all his teams.
In 2011, he signed with FC Lausanne-Sport of the Swiss Super League, before moving on to the Major League Soccer to play two seasons with FC Dallas from 2013.
Peter Luccin was always a very intelligent midfielder on the pitch, gifted with excellent technical quality and with great leadership skills.
Close, affectionate and very demanding of himself and his teammates, the former Marseille player was always a great captain on and off the field.
From his position as a midfielder, he always had a privileged knowledge of the game, and it is no surprise that this opportunity has come to him as head coach of FC Dallas, as he was already a coach on the field when he was an active player.
