Free market in Syrian football now as this year allows private sponsors and commercials in team jerseys! The most favored was Hittin, who managed to attract several sponsors and put a lot of money into the transfers.
First and foremost international striker Martik Mardikian who returned after a long stint in Oman, Qatar, Jordan etc. A lot of talk (and is being done) about the salary of the new coach (no other than A ), his brother Mohammed Afas whom we have certainly come to know as a player of the Ionic! So it is no coincidence that the start (and the lead) of the team with two wins and a tie (but with a penalty shoot-out)!
Of course, the start of Naguire (1-2-0) is also positive, but with the note that all three games took place at its stadium, twice as a home team and once as a guest of compatriot Taliya. Far from Hama, it is not expected to be so "strong" especially in a hot seat (25.000 are expected) and against a team that has already shown its teeth.
