Although training has started in Al Sadd and Al Shamal, like most clubs, in preparation for the new football season that will start on August 9, Al Sadd and Al Shamal have not yet contracted with the new coach who will lead the two teams in the new football season, which is expected to witness great difficulties, especially for Al Sadd, who will defend its title as league champion, and also the AFC Champions League for the elite.
Al Sadd did not renew the contract of the national coach, Wissam Rizk, who led the team last season to win the league and the Emir Cup. Expectations indicate that the next coach will be Spanish, as many names were put forward to take on the leader’s challenge, the most prominent of which was Sanchez, the former coach of Al Annabi and the coach of Ecuador, who was dismissed after the recent loss to Argentina in the Copa America. It is likely that he will be the coach of Al Za’eem in the new season.
Al Sadd team left Doha yesterday heading to Malaga, Spain to hold a training camp. The training is currently being led by the Spanish Sergio Allegri, the assistant coach, until the arrival of the new coach to be his assistant in the coming period. As for Al Shamal, its former coach, the Swedish Boya Aspagi, who led it last season, left it and officially moved a few days ago to Al Rayyan to coach its team, succeeding the Portuguese coach Jardim, whose contract was terminated by mutual consent. The Portuguese will be Almeida, who previously worked with Freire and Wissam Rizk and has extensive experience in the Qatari league. He may need some time to get to know the team and the players.
Expectations indicate that the identity of the coaches of the two teams, “Al Sadd and Al Shamal”, will soon be revealed, especially with the approaching date of the friendly matches and the approaching date of the start of the Ooredoo Stars League.
With the arrival of the new coaches for Al Sadd and Al Shamal, the number of new coaches in the Ooredoo Stars League will rise to 4 coaches, in addition to the Croatian Igor Scan (Al Ahli) and Angel Angel (Al Wakrah).
