Although FIFA days are behind us, an unexpected event has occurred in Tajik football. Both the country's main national team and the U-23 national team were left without a head coach. The Tajikistan Football Federation officially announced this.
As is known, in recent months both national teams have been unsuccessful in the games. The main team failed to advance from the group stage at the CAFA Nations Cup 2025. The U-23 youth team failed to meet the requirements in the Asian Cup qualifiers and did not qualify for the main stage.
Due to these results, the head coach of the main team, Gela Shekiladze, and the coach of the U-23 national team, Levan Homeriki, were dismissed from their posts. The Federation announced its decision to the general public and announced that it would announce new candidates soon.
Although Tajik football has gone through a certain stage of development in recent years, this year's failure has offended many fans. It is said that the issue of bringing in a strong and experienced coach to ensure the prospects of the national teams is on the agenda.
Thus, a new era may begin for Tajik football. The selection of new coaches and their programs will undoubtedly have a great impact on the future of the teams. And the fans hope to see their national teams worthy in major competitions again.
