Career
[edit]A skillful free kick taker and a talented passer, Zehtinski spent more than a decade with Botev Plovdiv, while also having two spells with Arda from Kardzhali and one season with Omonia Nicosia in Cyprus.[1] On 7 November 1984, Zehtinski captained the "canaries" from Plovdiv in their 2:0 second leg victory over German powerhouse Bayern Munich in a 1/8 final of the European Cup Winners' Cup. Botev Plovdiv were eventually eliminated after an aggregate score of 3:4.[2] His nickname is Zico. Between 1996 and 1998, he was assistant manager of CSKA Sofia and also had a short stint as head coach in 1998.[3] Beyond his club-related pursuits, Zehtinski has served as assistant manager of Bulgaria.[3]
