Mohammad Al-Shamlan (born 26 December 1972) is a Bahraini football coach. Besides Bahrain, he has managed in Pakistan.[2][3] Leading the Bahrain Olympic Team to the 2010 Asian Games, he left them after a dismal campaign which saw them fail to progress past the group stage.[4] Was denied entry into Palestine by Israel to join his team in the 2014 Palestine International Championship for some days and was forced to sit out of their first game.[5]
Career
He sent 5 goalkeeping coaches to License B training courses in Bahrain when managing Pakistan and was the only foreign coach to deliberately quit the Pakistan job.[6]
Pakistan National Team
Mohammad Al-Shamlan was designated as manager of Pakistan in 2013, asking for a six-month buffer period in order to yield positive results.[7] As their manager, he tried to utilize Pakistan's football talent[4] but failed and quit the job in summer 2015, joining Riffa SC in the Bahraini Premier League.[8] With Al-Shamlan as coach, Pakistan failed to progress to the second round of the 2018 FIFA World Cup qualification.[9]
Pakistan Under 23's
Blamed for unsatisfactory results for the Pakistan U-23's in the 2016 AFC U-23 Championship qualifying stages and losing all matches, he was backed by the Pakistan Football Federation.[10]
