Suleiman managed to lead the police to the Iraqi league title this season, 7 full rounds before the end, which is an unprecedented record in the history of the league.
In his first season, Suleiman returned the league shield to the police treasuries, after two seasons were absent, and a difference of 21 points from his closest pursuers, the Air Force.
The experience in Egypt
Suleiman’s experience with Egyptian Zamalek in 2016, when he led the team to the Egyptian Cup title, and qualified for the African Champions League final.
But in the final of the most expensive African championship, he was defeated by Mamelodi Sundowns of South Africa and his coach at the time, Pitso Mosimane, 3-0, before winning 1-0 in the second leg to no avail.
Since then, Suleiman has been suffering from the “anger” of the Zamalek fans, because of his neglect of the most expensive title in 2016.
In an interview with the Egyptian Al-Hayat channel a few months ago, Suleiman said: “The fans of Zamalek enter the Police Club page, respond to the comments that praise me and say that I am the reason for Zamalek to lose the championship in 2016. “.
Shine in Iraq’s stadiums
Although his adventure in Egypt ended in frustration, his adventure in Iraqi football was successful by all accounts, as he swept the league competitions with his police team in his first season.
This prompted the Condition Department to renew the contract with Suleiman and his coaching team, to lead the team next season.
It is noteworthy that Suleiman had previously trained Misr El-Maqasa, Smouha and the Egypt junior national team, but his adventures did not last more than one year with each experience.
Suleiman’s experience received unprecedented praise among the Iraqi fans, as one of the activists wrote on Facebook: “The most beautiful football presented in our league over the past 20 years is the one presented by Moamen Suleiman and his companions this season.”
Another wrote: “Moamen Suleiman, the Police Club coach, could be approached to train our national team, because he was familiar with the levels of our league and the professionals outside it.”
Another praised: “Momen Suleiman (Al-Prince) is better than he trained and led the technical staff for the guitar (the police) for the last years, and everyone agreed on this principle.”
