Runjaic Labels Udinese Defeat a 'Dark Evening', Defers on Future
Today's Matches · 02:04:49 - Thursday, 5 November 2026

Udinese head coach Kosta Runjaic described his team's latest outing as a "dark evening" and insisted that decisions regarding his future at the club are not in his hands. Speaking after the match, the German tactician offered a blunt assessment of the performance while sidestepping questions about his job security.

Runjaic's comments came in a post-match press conference covered by Football Italia on October 31, 2026. The coach did not elaborate on specific tactical or personnel issues but made clear his dissatisfaction with the result and the overall display.

Udinese, who compete in Italy's Serie A, have seen inconsistent form this season. Runjaic, appointed in 2024, has previously guided the Friulani to mid-table finishes. The club has not issued an official statement on the coach's status following the remarks.
