Head coach of "Araz-Nakhchivan" Elmar Bakhshiyev shared his thoughts on signing a new contract. Sport24.az reports with reference to the press service of the Nakhchivan club that the specialist said that the negotiations with the management were successfully completed.
He emphasized that he was satisfied with the terms of the proposed new agreement:
"We met with the management, discussed both the completed season and shared our thoughts on the new "football year." The negotiations were successful and I decided to continue my work on the "Araz-Nakhchivan" project. We can build a better team and improve our results. The team really did a great job in the completed season. Despite the difficulties, it entered the ranks of medalists for the first time in its history and got the opportunity to play in European Cups. We came to a common denominator to continue this successful schedule together. Because the conditions were satisfactory, we signed a new contract."
Bakhshiyev touched upon the team's preparation plan:
"Of course, a more difficult and responsible "football year" awaits us. The plans are already known. The team will undergo training in 2 stages. First, we will gather in Baku. Until that time, we will try to complete the team. There will be changes in our squad. Along with those who leave, new ones will come. Information about this will be provided in time. Our searches have started. In Turkey, we will try to eliminate the shortcomings by holding test matches. Our sparring partners will be announced in the coming days."
It should be noted that the Nakhchivan representative finished the 2024/2025 season in the Misli Premier League in third place and qualified for the UEFA Conference League.
