In a surprising development, coach Qattan Jathir decided to leave the training of Nawruz club, despite the club's management's earnest attempts to keep him for another season, after the team finished its journey in the Iraqi Premier League in a mid-table position, presenting varying levels throughout the season.

Despite the technical management's insistence on keeping the coach who took on the role under difficult circumstances, Qattan Jathir's determination to leave the team settled the matter, as he officially bid farewell to the players in the locker room, thanking them for their efforts and positions, and confirming that his departure does not mean the end of the relationship with the club or its fans, who showed great respect for his career.

Jathir had provided an acceptable performance considering the available resources, as he maintained a relative stability for the team, making Nawruz a tough opponent in several encounters. However, his desire to embark on a new experience or perhaps to focus on other matters led him to make the final decision to leave the team.

For its part, the management of Nawruz club has begun intensive communications to choose a suitable replacement, and according to sources close to the club, next week will be decisive in the contract with a new coach, as several names have been put on the discussion table, most notably the current coach of Maysan Oil, Hussein Abdul Wahid, who is considered one of the prominent names from last season after leading his team to achieve a good position despite limited resources.

This comes as part of the management's efforts to maintain the stability of the technical team and to lay clear foundations for the upcoming phase of the Iraqi Stars League, amid greater ambitions for a stronger season.

It is worth noting that Nawruz club has gained a respectable fan base and good administrative support, making it an attractive stop for any coach looking to prove himself or create a long-term project.
