José Leonardo Nunes Alves Sousa Jardim (born August 1, 1974 in Barcelona , Venezuela ) is a Portuguese football coach . Most recently he was head coach of AS Monaco .

Coaching career

Jardim, the son of Portuguese emigrants, was born in Venezuela but spent his childhood and youth on the Portuguese island of Madeira . After coaching positions at AD Camacha , GD Chaves and SC Beira-Mar , Jardim was able to celebrate his first successes in the Primeira Liga at Sporting Braga when he led the team from the Portuguese north to third place in the championship. Further engagements with the Greek series champion Olympiacos and the Portuguese capital club Sporting Lisbon followed.

On June 10, 2014, Leonardo Jardim was introduced as the new coach of AS Monaco . He has signed a two-year contract plus a one-year option, succeeding Italian Claudio Ranieri . In May 2015, his contract with Monaco was extended to 2019. The highlight of his tenure was winning the championship in the 2016/17 season and reaching the semi-finals of the UEFA Champions League in the same season. Jardim managed to develop young players such as Thomas Lemar , Fabinho (both 2018), Kylian Mbappé , Benjamin Mendy , Bernardo Silva , Tiemoué Bakayoko (all 2017), Anthony Martial , Geoffrey Kondogbia , Layvin Kurzawa and Yannick Carrasco (all 2015) and to transfer them with high proceeds. However, this transfer policy had to be increasingly taken into account from a sporting point of view: After the championship season including reaching the Champions League semi-finals, the team achieved second place in the 2017/18 season with 13 points behind the champions Paris Saint-Germain and was eliminated in the Champions League in the group stage. After nine match days of the 2018/19 season, the team was third from bottom of the table with six points, whereupon Jardim was dismissed on October 11, 2018. After his successor Thierry Henry had only two wins in twelve league games, Jardim returned to AS Monaco at the end of January 2019 as head coach. Jardim managed to stay in the league as a result, but shortly before the end of the year he was dismissed while lying in seventh place in the table.
