Al Ahly have confirmed the appointment of Ricardo Soares as the club’s new head coach on two-year deal.
The Portuguese mentor replaces Pitso Mosimane, who recently parted ways with the Egyptian giants.
Soares started working as a manager in 2005 at the age of 30, with amateur side Clube Caçadores das Taipas. Having signed with F.C. Vizela in 2014, he achieved promotion to the second level at the end of the 2015/16 campaign.
In June 2022, the 47-year-old manager moved abroad for the first time in his career, paying €250,000 to release himself from his Gil Vicente contract ahead of his new deal with the Red Devil.
He also coached teams such as G.D. Chaves, C.D. Aves, S.C. Covilhã, Moreirense FC just to mention a few.
