DOHA: Determined to rediscover their winning touch, Qatar giants Al Sadd yesterday announced the appointment of former Manchester City and Italy manager Roberto Mancini as their new head coach.
The reigning Qatar Stars League (QSL) champions confirmed that the 60-year-old Italian has signed a two-and-a-half-year deal with the club.
“This contract comes as part of the club management’s efforts to strengthen the technical staff with distinguished coaching expertise capable of achieving the team’s ambitions and continuing its run of success,” Al Sadd said in a statement yesterday.
The signing ceremony was attended by Al Sadd CEO Sheikh Khalifa bin Khalid and the club’s Head of Football Department, Mohammed Ghanem Al Ali.
Mancini, a former Italian international forward, has managed several top European clubs and enjoyed his most successful spell with Inter Milan, where he guided the Nerazzurri to three Serie A titles, two Coppa Italia crowns, and two Supercoppa Italiana triumphs between 2004 and 2008.
