Djamel Belmadi, coach of Al Duhail, has been named the Qatar Stars League’s best coach for October 2026 after his side recorded four wins that month, including a 3‑2 victory over Al Sadd.

His career includes periods as coach of Qatar and Algeria, leading Qatar to the Gulf Cup and West Asian Cup in 2014 and guiding Algeria to the Africa Cup of Nations title in 2019. At Al Duhail he has won nine trophies, notably a treble in 2018, and the club currently shares first place with Al Rayyan after eight matches in the 2025/26 season.

Al Duhail enjoyed an eight‑match winning run across all competitions before losing to NEOM, a match in which Benrahma scored the decisive goal.
