Coach Vartan Gazarian

We are pleased to welcome Coach Vartan Gazarian in our team. Vartan was a highly effective player with Homentmen Beirut and Sagesse FC with a record of 131 goals. In 1993, he joined the Lebanese National Team in which he played for 7 years and scored 19 goals (4 in World Cup qualifiers, 3 in Asian Cup qualifiers, 12 in friendlies).
