DOHA: QNB Stars League devised by the Qatar Stars League (QSL) and approved by the Qatar Football Association Executive Board has appointed Paris Saint-Germain’s former Sporting Director Antero Henrique as the QSL Sporting Director.
The Portuguese, who was at the French side between 2017 and 2019, will be responsible for the development of the league, the QSL said on Tuesday.
As part of the continuous development process to raise the levels of teams and provide competitive, high-quality football entertainment, Henrique’s goal will be to provide support to clubs to find overseas experts and players, according to QSL.
“It’s with great honour and ambition that I join the QSL. This organisation is based on a clear and remarkable vision, and is something that really motivated me since the first conversation,” Henrique said.
“The opportunity we have in our hands is something unique. With a common policy, based on synergies and a global vision, football in Qatar will make a step forward and will be taken as an example for quality, organisation and sustainable business model.”
“We’ve developed the new strategy with the aim of providing competitive and high-quality football entertainment,” said Ahmed Khellil Abbassi, Executive Director of Competitions and Football Development at the QSL.
