"Khankendi" Aims for Championship in the Second League

"Khankendi", the debutant of the Azerbaijan Second League, aims to win the national championship.

The team's head coach, Ibrahim Uzunca, stated this in an interview with "Report".

The Turkish specialist, who extended his contract with the club yesterday, said that they have formed a good team:

"I am happy that my contract has been extended. Because there are big goals ahead. Last year we won the Regional League. This season, we want to continue this in the Second League and become champions. We have formed a team that can reach the First League. We believe in the kids and our strength. As long as we are good, we only see ourselves as rivals. We also respect other rivals. We will fight seriously with each of them on the field, and we have enough strength for this."

He later emphasized that they will compete for the Premier League:

"We have kept some players from last season's squad. We have endless faith that they will help us reach our goals. We have also invited players who will strengthen the squad. Our efforts continue at the highest level. We will do our best to qualify for the First League. We want to take the "Khankendi" team to the places it deserves. And then, if fate allows, we will aim to rise to the Premier League. We believe we can do it. We aim to make the name of "Khankendi" known throughout Europe."

It should be noted that "Khankendi", the winner of the AFFA Regional League, will play in the Azerbaijan Second League in the 2025/2026 season.
