Branko Ivankovic Al Ahli

PLDC – Saud Arabian football club Al Ahli sacked Branko Ivankovic following poor results in the Saudi Professional League.

Ivankovic was appointed as Al Ahli coach on a two-year contract in June after parting company with Iranian football club Persepolis.

The 65-year-old replaced local coach Yousif Anbar who had been installed as caretaker in April following the dismissal of Uruguayan manager Jorge Fossati who lasted just over two months at Al Ahli.

Under coaching of Ivankovic, Al Ahli failed to book a place at the quarterfinals of the AFC Champions League 2019 after losing to Al Hilal. 

The Croat coach has reportedly reached an agreement with a Chinese club.
