Ali Yavash is giving end to his career in Gabala as a Football Academy Director by resignation. The Turkish soccer specialist was at the helm since in November 2008. Introducing family issues as the reason, Yavash was allowed in his official approach to take leave. Before bidding farewell to the club, Ali talked to gabalafc.az: 

-- “It was really pleasure to me having my last four years at Gabala. We came up with an academy for FC Gabala and improved youth soccer here. Now the Gabala Football Academy is of the bests in Azerbaijan. It is no coincidence that, Gabala is the club providing provisional teams of lower ages most players. I believe Gabala will go on developing faster in this way to reach to bigger successes.

Now I have to leave the club. It is very hard to me, but I understand that I have to get back to Turkey for my family problems. But I still love Gabala and Azerbaijan. I appreciate the board of club administration for kindly having my resignation approach”.

Although the Academy director is quitting the club, the other coaches came with him – Halim Ficici, Recep Yazici and Ughur Kurt – will continue on their jobs. Ali wishes successes to them, too:

-- “I am leaving, but my men are still here with Gabala. I wish them more big hits and believe they will beat the high level of those works we started together. Sure I will keep helping Gabala with what I can do for them. I will visit the club some times in my possibilities”.

The Gabala Professional Football Club appreciate Ali Yavash for his four year with us and wish him all our bests on his further football career!
