The newly promoted UAE and Arab coaches to the ADNOC Professional League raise the number of Arab coaches in the new season to five, to be the most numerous among 11 nationalities, who will appear on the technical seats, with the start of the league scheduled for August 19.
The number of Arab coaches at the start of the professional league increased in a way that had not been achieved in the previous 13 editions of the competition, as the presence of Arab coaches in the last edition was limited to Sharjah coach, Emirati Abdulaziz Al-Anbari, and former Ajman coach, Egyptian Ayman Al-Ramadi.
The Emirates Club assigned the task of technical leadership to Moroccan Tariq Sektioui, the former Moroccan coach of the Moroccan Berkane Renaissance, and one of the foreign players who previously played in the UAE Professional League in the 2009 season with the Ajman Club shirt.
The management of the newly promoted Al-Orouba club in the Arab Gulf League rewarded Tunisian coach Fathi Al-Obaidi, with a new contract that extends until the end of the 2021-2022 football season, after his success in leading the green team of the League of Lights and Fame for the first time in the era of professionalism.
The new season is witnessing a state of stability at the level of technical staff, as the management of the 12 ADNOC Professional League clubs continued from last season did not make any changes to the technical leadership, and the changes were made in only two clubs, namely Al-Ain, who assigned the task to Ukrainian Sergei Rebrov, as a replacement for Portuguese Pedro Emmanuel. , while Ajman appointed Serbian Goran Tofidzic to replace the Egyptian Ayman Al-Ramadi, after the end of the latter's contract with the club.
The 2021-2022 season appears to be the best in terms of technical stability for coaches, compared to the last season, which witnessed technical stability with nine coaches, while five clubs changed their coaches, given the lack of rise to first-class clubs due to the “Corna” pandemic, which canceled the league. In the 2010-2019 season.
The Latin school comes in second place after the Arab coaches, with four names distributed between Brazil, Argentina and Uruguay.
Al Wasl and Khorfakkan retained the Brazilian coaches, Audeer Hellmann and Caio Zanardi, after they achieved a major breakthrough in the performance of the two teams last season.
The same thing was done by Al-Nasr with Argentine Ramon Diaz, although the coach was not able to achieve any championship for the "brigade" last season, despite his team's qualification for the Arab Gulf Cup final with its old name and the President of the State Cup, and the Kalba Union with its Uruguayan coach, Jorge Dasilva.
And I attended the Eastern European training school, represented by the Romanian coach of Bani Yas, Daniel Isila, who did well with Al Samawi last season, and remained a contender for the title in the last round, and will lead him in the AFC Champions League next season.
Al-Ain will rely on the experience of Ukrainian coach Sergei Rebrov, despite rumors that the coach may leave the club to take over the national team.
The Ukrainian coach previously led Al-Ahly of Saudi Arabia for one season 2017-2018, and also worked with Dynamo Kyiv and Franzvaros of Hungary.
He also won the Ukrainian League title twice with Dynamo Kiev, and led Fransvaros to the Hungarian League title in the last three seasons.
While Ajman Club came out of the mantle of Arab coaches, who had been relying on them for the past five seasons, and contracted with former Fujairah coach, Goran Tovedzic.
The European school is represented by the Dutch coaches, for Al Jazeera, Marcel Kaiser, who won the league title last season, and for Al Wahda Tin Kat, who also managed to cross Al Wahda to the second round of the AFC Champions League.
Al-Awadi: The Arab coach and the most useful citizen of the league
Football analyst, Dr. Ahmed Al-Awadi, confirmed that he is one of the strongest supporters of the presence of the local and Arab coach in the UAE league, as he is the most useful and successful.
He told "Emirates Today": "If we review the history of Emirati football since its inception, we will find that it was founded by Arab coaches, especially from Egypt, and until the present confirms that Arab coaches had a clear imprint in the professional league, especially through our national coaches, Mahdi Ali, Who managed to achieve three championships with Al-Ahly youth last season, and coach Abdulaziz Al-Anbari, who brought Sharjah back to the fore, competing for local titles.
He added, "I hope our clubs will give the national coach more opportunity than what is currently available, as it is not acceptable to have names of the value and expertise of Eid Barout and Dr. Abdullah Misfer, and their location is in the analytical studios, instead of the green grass."
He pointed out: "I suggested to the Football Association to develop future strategies to impose the national coach on the scene, by working in the amateur league clubs, and there is also a role for the clubs, even if at least assigning the task of training reserve teams to Emirati coaches."
Al-Awadi explained that “10 clubs retaining their coaches from last season, is a good thing that serves the stability of the competition from a technical point of view, as the frequent change of coaches in general is a negative phenomenon and does not serve the league and clubs alike, and I expect that the competition in the new season will be hot, because every coach has undoubtedly worked on remedy the deficiencies that he suffered last season.”
He pointed out: “Clubs must maintain the state of technical stability for their teams, and do not take the initiative to change coaches at any time, regardless of the results, because the coach is not the only one who works in the football system within the club, as there are other parties involved with him, including the management and players, And any decline in the results is the responsibility of everyone, not just the coach.”
• The new season is witnessing a state of stability at the technical level, as only two clubs, Al Ain and Ajman, made changes in the technical management.
