Leonid Viktorovich Slutsky (Russian: Леонид Викторович Слуцкий; born 4 May 1971) is a Russian professional football coach and a former player, who currently coaches the Russian national football team and PFC CSKA Moscow.

Playing career

Slutsky's playing career ended at just 19 years of age. He had to retire due to a knee injury sustained after falling out of a tree while rescuing a neighbour's cat.[1]

Coaching career

Slutsky was head coach of FC Moscow 14 July 2005[2] until the end of the 2007 season.[3] His final match as head coach of Moscow was a 3–1 win against Luch-Energiya Vladivostok on 11 November 2007.[4] Slutsky was head coach of Krylia Sovetov between 1 January 2008[5] until 26 October 2009[6] when he replaced Juande Ramos to become the head coach of CSKA Moscow.[7] In December 2009, under Slutsky, CSKA reached the knock-out stage of the Champions League for the first time in the club's history,[8] before being knocked out by Mourinho's Inter Milan in the quarter-finals.

Two years later the achievement was repeated, when CSKA defeated Inter Milan at the San Siro in the last game of the group stage.[9]

Towards the 2012/13 season Slutsky strengthened the team defense and re-organized the attack, which helped the team set a record of 15 games without being scored against, and to win all the games where the team scored first, resulting in a title.[10]

On 7 August 2015, it was announced that Slutsky would take over the Russian national football team in place of the outgoing Fabio Capello.[11] The contract is until the end of Euro 2016 qualifying.[11] Slutsky won all of his qualifying games and got Russia into the Euro 2016.[12]

On 14 November 2015 Russia beat Portugal 1–0 in a friendly game and Slutsky repeated Sadyrin's achievement of winning his five first games as the head coach of Russia.[13] He will remain as the Russian coach until the end of UEFA Euro 2016.

On 21 May 2016, CSKA beat Rubin Kazan 1-0 to secure the title ahead of surprise challengers Rostov. This gave Slutsky his third title in four years with the Moscow club.
