Australian coach Graham Arnold has left his post as the head coach of the Iraq national football team. The decision to part ways was made by mutual consent. Arnold had been in charge of the Iraqi team for the past year. During this time, the team played several friendly matches under his leadership but failed to qualify for a major tournament. The official reason for his departure is not disclosed, but it is known that the parties could not agree on the future strategy of the team. The Iraqi Football Association will announce the new head coach's name in the near future.
