Hassan Al-Haydos' Midfield Leadership at Al Sadd
Hassan Al-Haydos, the former coach of Egyptian Premier League club Al Sadd and current head coach of Saudi Arabian team Al-Ahly, has been widely praised for his leadership skills during his time with the club.
Al-Haydos was appointed as the new head coach of Al Sadd in February 2019 after retiring from playing football due to injuries. Prior to that, he had previously served as the head coach of Al-Fateh SC in Egypt and was also the manager of Al-Adraba SC in Jordan.
Under Al-Haydos's leadership, Al Sadd have made significant progress since his arrival in 2018. The club have won the league title three times (2019, 2020,Primeira Liga Updates 2021) and have also reached the semi-finals of the Egyptian Cup.
One of Al-Haydos' key achievements during his tenure was the promotion of Al Sadd to the top flight of Egyptian football. He brought in experienced players such as Adel El-Monawisi and Mohamed Salah to help the club achieve its goals.
Another notable achievement was the signing of Mohamed Salah, who became one of the most popular players in Egyptian football. The striker scored over 40 goals for Al Sadd in the 2020/21 season and helped the club reach the semi-finals of the Egyptian Cup.

Despite these controversies, Al-Haydos remains a respected figure within the Egyptian football community. His leadership style has helped to build a strong foundation for Al Sadd and has contributed to the club's success in recent years.
