Al Arabi was formed in 1972 after the merging of both Al Tahrir and Al Wahda sports clubs. Al Arabi have been considered one of the major forces of Qatari football and contributed to the foundation of the Qatar Football Association in 1965. The club was given the nickname of ‘The Dream Team’, a reference to the USA basketball team by the local press in the 90’s as a nod to to their all-conquering side in the 1992/1993 season.

CURRENT HEAD COACH
Luka Bonacic

Nationality Croatian	Date of Birth 21/03/1955	Seasons in QSL 4

Al Arabi’s Croatian coach Luka Bonacic is no stranger to Qatar football, having guided Al Shahania and Al Ahli before taking over the reins of The Dream Team from Tunisian Qais Yaakoubi in the first phase of 2017-18 season QNB Stars League.

Bonacic has a highly-impressive CV. He has coached many clubs in his native Croatia, such as Varteks, Hajduk Split, NK Zagreb and Dynamo Tirana. He was also at the helm of top Iranian teams Sepahan, Foolad, Mes Kermen, Zob Ahan and Gostaresh, besides coaching Dubai side Al Nasr.

He famously took Sepahan to the 2007 AFC Champions League final, which they lost to Japan’s Urawa Red Diamonds.
