Review
editBackground
editAfter Al-Minaa Club entered into an administrative crisis last season, as FIFA imposed a ban on contracting players, it was forced to play with the academy players.[1] Despite all the difficulties, it was able to ensure its survival in the Iraq Stars League since the 35th round[2] and finished the league in 12th place,[3] which was considered a football miracle.[4] However, coach Hassan Ahmed apologized for continuing with the team and withdrew after the end of the season.[5][6] So the club's newly elected management[7][8] began contracting with Spanish coach Pablo Grandes in 29 July to prepare a team that would compete for the league.[9][10][11][12]

On 10 August, coach Pablo Grandes arrived in Basra from Spain with his assistant Iván McCarroll to officially lead the Al-Minaa team.[26] He was introduced to the media as the coach of Al-Minaa, and he said in the press conference that he wanted to compete for advanced positions in the league and that he chose Al-Minaa because it is the oldest club among the Iraqi clubs and that he would work to create a competitive team.[27][28]
On 12 August, the club announced the signing of 31-year-old Spanish striker Lolo Plá from Spanish club, Talavera.[29][30] The contract of central midfielder Mohammed Khudhair was also renewed,[31] as was the contract of centre back Hussein Amer after his return from a loan to Naft Maysan.[32]
