Ex-Al Ahly coach Marcel Koller appointed FC Zurich head coach

Swiss side FC Zurich have confirmed the appointment of experienced Austrian tactician Marcel Koller as the club’s new head coach, marking a return to familiar territory for the former Al Ahly SC boss.

The 63-year-old begins a fresh chapter in his managerial career back in Switzerland, where he previously enjoyed success in the domestic league.

His return is expected to bring stability and renewed ambition to FC Zurich as the club looks to reassert itself among the country’s elite.

Koller’s appointment follows his departure from North African giants Al Ahly, where he built a strong reputation during his tenure, particularly for his tactical discipline and ability to compete at the highest level of continental football.

FC Zurich are expected to officially unveil the new coach in the coming days, with preparations already underway for the next phase of the club’s campaign under his leadership.
