He helped the club secure the 3rd position in the 2013–14 Bahraini Premier League which was the club's best league finish in history. They also had a successful run in the 2014 AFC Champions League where they entered as a qualifying play-off Round 1 participant. In Round 1, the club posted a resounding 3–1 victory over their hosts, 2012–13 Jordan League champions, Shabab Al-Ordon Club.[1][2] In Round 2, the Bahraini club were defeated 2-1 by 2012–13 Qatar Stars League runners-up Lekhwiya SC at the Abdullah bin Khalifa Stadium and hence failed to advance to the AFC Champions League group stage.[3][4][5] As a result, the club got a direct entry into the 2014 AFC Cup group stage. The club finished second in Group C which included 2013 Kuwait Emir Cup winners, Al-Qadsia SC (finished as the winners of 2014 AFC Cup), 2012–13 Iraqi Elite League champions Al-Shorta SC and 2013 Syrian Cup winners, Al-Wahda SC Damascus and hence advanced to the 2014 AFC Cup knock-out stage. In the Round of 16, the club secured a 1–0 win over 2012–13 Lebanese Premier League champions, Al-Safa' SC and advanced to the Quarter-finals.[6][7] In the Quarter-finals the Bahraini club again met their group mate, Al-Qadsia SC. In the First leg, the club played a 1–1 draw against hosts[8][9][10] and in the Second leg the club again played out a draw with the visitors (2-2)[11][12] but were unlucky as the visitors advanced to the Semi-finals on away goals rule. This was the club's best ever performance in an Asian Football Confederation competition.

The club began the campaign on a flying note as they secured a 2–1 win over 2013–14 Syrian Premier League winners, Al-Wahda SC Damascus.[18][19][20]
