Hamroun talks to QSL: We aim to win more titles

Al Sadd attacker Jugurtha Hamroun believes that his side can make a creditable title push and ensure that Xavi ends his professional career lifting the QNB Stars League shield come the end of the season.

Speaking to the QSL website, Hamroun said: “The philosophy of the club has not changed. We are looking to win everything we play in this season, we will give our best. The league is our major target this season.”

“We have kept our squad together and added real quality in Boualem Khoukhi and Yasser Abubakar. They have proven how good they are at their former clubs and they will help us this season” noted Hamroun, when asked about the new arrivals at Al Sadd.

Along with proven quality, Al Sadd can also rely on some of the best youth talent in Qatar, something that the Algerian attacker is not underestimating this season. “We won the Sheikh Jassim Cup this season with a young squad. They will be important for us in the competitions we play in and I’m sure they will step up.”

Wrapping up the interview, Hamroun stressed that the whole club is targeting the league for their club captain Xavi, who is set to call time on a glittering career at the end of the season. “It will be fair to win the league for Xavi. He is our leader on the pitch, and we will give our best to give him this present at the end of the season.”
