Manager Michel departs Al Qadsiah after two successful years
Manager Michel has officially departed from Al Qadsiah after two successful years in charge. His tenure included significant achievements, including the club’s promotion back to the Roshn Saudi League for the 2024-25 season.
Al Qadsiah’s Performance Under Michel
During his time with Al Qadsiah, the team finished fourth in their first season back in the league. They also made an impressive run to the King’s Cup final, ultimately falling to the reigning champions, Al Ittihad.
Current League Standing
As of now, Al Qadsiah stands at fifth place in the 2025-26 league table, having completed nine matches. Michel’s final game resulted in a narrow defeat against Al Ahil during Matchweek nine.
Future Plans for Al Qadsiah
- The club’s next league match is scheduled at home against Damac on December 27.
- A planned review by the executive management was conducted to evaluate the team’s progress.
- Al Qadsiah expressed gratitude to Michel Gonzalez and his staff for their professionalism and contributions.
Michel played a vital role in the club’s promotion and the team’s success in the King’s Cup. His departure joins the increasing trend of managerial changes in the Roshn Saudi League this season, with two other notable exits: Laurent Blanc from Al Ittihad and Javier Calleja from Al Riyadh.
Transition to New Leadership
Al Qadsiah is actively seeking a new head coach for its men’s football team. The club aims for a smooth transition to maintain its strategic goals and further enhance their performance in the league. Further updates on the new appointment will be released shortly.
