Amid expected changes within the corridors of Al-Zawraa Club, questions are increasing among fans about the future of the club's presidency, and who is the personality that deserves to take the helm in the upcoming phase, in light of the complex sports, economic, and administrative conditions faced by "the largest popular club in Iraq".

While some may expect that the next president will be a former player or a well-known star, the reality on the ground has become completely different. The modern era of football no longer relies solely on sports experience or shining names, but is managed with the logic of money, smart management, and influence.

Therefore, what are the most important qualities that should be present in the personality of the next president of Al-Zawraa Club? Here are the most prominent traits needed for the current phase:

First: The club often faces a funding crisis due to delays in funds from the ministry or the failure to disburse the full budget. Therefore, the club president must be capable of injecting money when needed, and ensuring the team's continuity both technically and administratively without long waits or work disruptions.

Second: Sports today are not managed only from within the stadiums, but also from the corridors of relationships and negotiations. A club president is required to have a strong network of relationships not only within the sports community but also with state institutions, companies, media, and influential entities. All of this translates into support for the team and facilitates its missions.

Third: The management of the club cannot be individualistic, nor can it proceed with ad hoc decisions. A president is needed who listens to his colleagues, lays out a clear work plan, distributes tasks, and believes in the idea of "one team", rather than monopolizing every major and minor decision.

Fourth: One of the most prominent challenges facing Al-Zawraa Club at certain stages is external interference and favoritism. It is essential that the next president is a decisive personality who does not yield to any pressures regardless of their source, and maintains the independence of the Al-Zawraa decision, for the reputation of the club and its large fanbase.
