This was stated by coach Elmar Bakhshiev in an interview with Offsideplus.az.

Speaking about his departure from Araz-Nakhchivan, the specialist said:

“They simply called me and said they didn’t want to work with me anymore. Overall, I think I had a successful period with ‘Araz-Nakhchivan.’ We took the team from ninth place and moved it up the standings. We played a role in achieving certain successes and firsts.”

Commenting on reports about alleged problems with players in the team, Bakhshiev said:

“Ask the players yourselves. They will tell you that these talks are false.”

Bakhshiev also noted that he has not yet received any new offers.

It should be noted that Araz-Nakhchivan announced today that it has parted ways with the head coach. Elmar Bakhshiev was appointed head coach of the club in April 2024. Under his leadership, the team finished third in the Misli Premier League in the 2024/2025 season and competed in the UEFA Europa Conference League.
