The German Matthias Yaisle, head coach of Al-Ahli Saudi Club, achieved a significant milestone by entering the list of the top 15 young coaches in the world, according to the ranking by "Lentedesportiva" for the year 2025, after making a remarkable impact on the football scene this season.

Yaisle, who is 36 years old, ranked twelfth globally, capturing attention with his steady and confident leadership of Al-Ahli. Despite his relatively new experience in the Saudi league, he has left a clear mark and is known for his bold tactical thinking and inspiring calmness for the players.

Coaches from the German and English leagues, such as Terzić, Hütter, Kompany, and Tedesco, also occupied advanced positions, followed by Yaisle, while the following names ranked: Will Still (32 years old), Farioli (35 years old), and Kieran McKenna (38 years old).
