Moroccan Coach Hussein Ammouta announced his departure from heading the Jordanian National Football team after the end of his contract due to family matters.

Ammouta said in statements with the Moroccan second channel that he would leave the Jordanian team after a few months when his contract expires. He added that he is passing through hard times and he needs to be with his family in Morocco. 

The Moroccan coach said that he didn't receive any proposal after the end of AFC Asian Cup, respecting the contract with the Jordanian team.

The Jordanian national team made history by securing a spot in the final of the 2023 Asian Cup for the first time ever, following a 2-0 victory over South Korea in the semi-finals.

The Nashama team achieved a remarkable 2-0 win over the South Korean team, marking a new milestone in their football journey after reaching the semi-finals of the tournament for the first time in their history.
