Qatar national team stars have headed to their first training session under the guidance of newly appointed head coach Jorge Fossati. The former Al Rayyan tactician has chosen a 26 man squad for the upcoming matches against South Korea and Syria.

Current QSL league leaders Lekhwiya lead the way with 8 players in the squad, including midfielders Ismaeel Mohammed and Karim Boudiaf whilst Ali Afif also received a call up for the first time in over a year.

Al Sadd has contributed seven players to the Al Anabi squad including regulars Ali Asad and national team captain Hassan Haydoos. Fossati also turned to his former club Al Rayyan to pick the trio of Saad AL Hadjri in goal along with attacker Sebastian Soria and Rodrigo Tabata.

Qatar are set to take on South Korea in Soul on Thursday the 6th of October, before returning to Doha to face Syria just five days later on Tuesday the 11th of October. Al Anabi is currently bottom of group A, the final qualification round for the 2018 World Cup in Russia.
