Al Ain part ways with Crespo

Kuala Lumpur: Al Ain FC have parted ways with head coach Hernan Crespo, the two-time AFC Champions League™ winners announced on Wednesday.
Crespo leaves the club less than a year after taking charge, having led UAE's Al Ain to the AFC Champions League 2023/24 title in May.
Al Ain said in a statement on their social media accounts that they have decided to terminate the Argentine's contract.

The decision comes a day after Al Ain suffered a 5-1 defeat to Saudi Arabia's Al Nassr Club in the AFC Champions League Elite™ 2024/25.

The result left Al Ain rooted at the bottom of the West Zone standings, with just a point to show after four matches.
