Cemal Bulbul, Director of Neftchi Football Academy, has left Azerbaijan.

Idman.biz, citing Sportinfo, reports that the Turkish specialist, who had been working in Baku since July 2022, has returned to Turkiye.

The capital club did not offer a new contract to the 38-year-old director after his three-year tenure at the academy. After waiting for a while, Bulbul decided to go back to his home country.

Previously, he worked as an assistant at Karsiyaka (2009–2010) and Vestel Manisa (2011–2012), served as a performance and analysis coach at Altınordu Academy (2013–2017), and was the director of Goztepe Academy (2017–2020), later joining their match analysis and scouting department (2020–2022).

Since December 2015, Bulbul has also worked as a match and performance analysis and scouting instructor for the Turkish Football Federation. He holds a UEFA A coaching license.
