A poor first season in Denmark saw Trebor Mahtal fearing the sack at the lowest point of his 13-year Football Manager career. He'd led FC Midtjylland to a pretty disappointing 6th place in the league after they failed to get going in his first season in charge.
A short, sweet, successful season in Slovakia meant Trebor Mahtal was back on the job hunt as he resigned from his role at Slovan Bratislava on 31 May 2035. His last two jobs had been a little easy, so he was keen on a job that posed more of a challenge.
An exciting first season had seen Trebor Mahtal lead Crvena zvezda to a Serbian league and cup double and only miss out on Europa League glory via a penalty shootout. But the Zambian manager had his eyes set on a rebuild over the summer of 2034.
Trebor Mahtal enjoyed a solid first 12 months in Slovenia, leading NK Domzale to European qualification with their highest league finish in 13 years. But an unexpected twist saw him take on a massive new opportunity.
A disappointing season in Belgium, largely due to the ongoing financial challenges in Belgium on Football Manager 2024, saw Trebor Mahtal resign from his role at Royal Antwerp. That saw unemployed for the first time in eight years and back looking for a new opportunity across Europe.
Back in April, Mahtal was approached by a new team in a new league and offered a contract at the end of the 2029/30 season. This opportunity took him west to Belgium, as Royal Antwerp, who were then lingering in 6th in Belgium's Jupiler Pro League, came calling.
Trebor Mahtal's flourishing reputation as a serial title winner was done no harm whatsoever as he led Dynamo Kyiv to the national title and his first continental trophy in his first season in Ukraine. That made it four successive top-tier titles for the Zambian, who now faced another Champions League challenge as a result of last season's success.
Life in Ukraine had picked up just as life in Greece had ended, with Trebor Mahtal winning football matches at an impressive rate.
Panathinaikos dominated the Greek Super League with a record-breaking season that saw them claim three successive titles. But more penalty heartache in the Champions League had Trebor Mahtal questioning whether he'd achieved all that he could in Greece.
After establishing his Panathinaikos side as the best in Greece, many commentators were certain that the famously disloyal Trebor Mahtal would seek pastures new in the 2027 off-season. However, a summer of exciting signings and a move to a new 40,000-capacity stadium convinced the Zambian to stick with his Athenian project.
