Career

Born in Berlin, Jover started his coaching career at Montpellier as a video analyst and assisted several managers such as René Girard, Jean Fernandez and Frédéric Hantz at Stade de la Mosson from July 2009 to June 2019. While working at Montpellier, he took a match analyst role for Croatia for a brief spell in 2013. He then moved to England as an assistant coach of Dean Smith at Brentford from July 2016 and was a part of Smith's successor Thomas Frank's coaching team until June 2019. In July 2019 Manchester City appointed Jover as an assistant to Pep Guardiola, specializing in set-pieces, on the recommendation of Mikel Arteta who was the No.2 at the Etihad. Arteta left Manchester City for the Arsenal's manager job in December 2019, when he persuaded Jover to join the North London club. Jover is currently acting in the same role he had at Man City, a set-piece coach of Arsenal. [12]

The 2012–13 season was Arsenal Football Club's 21st season in the Premier League and 87th consecutive season in the top flight of English football. Arsenal participated in the Premier League and the UEFA Champions League, after finishing third in the previous Premier League season. The League Cup however was out of their reach, and despite an entertaining cup run, which included 13 goals scored in two games, Arsenal lost to fourth-division Bradford City in the quarter-finals on penalties. In the FA Cup, Arsenal were knocked out by Championship side Blackburn Rovers in the fifth round. The Champions League also proved fruitless, as despite a valiant effort in Bavaria winning 2–0, they were ultimately knocked out on the away goals rule against Bayern Munich, thus extending their trophy drought for an eighth season. The highest scoring game in their season was the famous 7–5 win in the League Cup, where they came back from 4 goals down to beat Reading. Arsenal's highest scoring league win was the 7–3 win against Newcastle United in December; this was also their joint highest-scoring Premier League game of all time. This season, Arsenal finished fourth after having to close another large points gap between themselves and their North London rivals Tottenham Hotspur, who they beat 5-2 for the second season running.
