Kanchanaburi FC, led by Coach Park Hang-seo, has strengthened its coaching staff for the 2026-2027 season.

On the 15th, agency DJ Management reported that "Kanchanaburi has appointed coach Diego Gomes and physical coach Noh Young-soo."

Coach Diego Gomes is a manager holding a UEFA Pro License. Recently, he served as head coach of the American Samoa national team, leading national team operations, player scouting, and the establishment of a long-term tactical system.

He has also accumulated extensive experience on the U.S. professional soccer stage. He previously served as head coach for Phoenix Rising FC in the USL Championship and Albion San Diego in the National Independent Soccer Association (NISA).

Notably, at QBFC, he led the team's founding and squad formation, producing seven professional players over four years. His ability to develop players and manage tactics was recognized with selections as USL Academy Coach of the Year and NISA Coach of the Year.

His playing career is also impressive. Coach Gomes went through both FC Barcelona's youth system, "La Masia," and Real Madrid's youth system, "La Fabrica." He later played for a Spanish Yeon Ryeong-byeol (CEO) team as well as in professional leagues in Spain and Hong Kong.

Noh Young-soo, who joined alongside Gomes, is a physical training specialist with experience from the Suwon Samsung Bluewings youth teams. As the physical coach for the Suwon Samsung U-15 team, he assisted in managing the fitness and improving the performance of youth players. After graduating from Keimyung University's Department of Physical Education, he furthered his expertise by studying in the Sports Medicine Graduate School at Cha University, majoring in athlete training.

He holds a KFA (Korea Football Association) Class C coaching license and a KFA Fitness Level 1 certification, with strengths in operating systematic programs to improve players' physical condition and prevent injuries.

Through DJ Management, Coach Diego Gomes stated, "It is a great honor to take on a new challenge alongside Coach Park Hang-seo. We will do our best together with the players to achieve the team's goals."

Coach Noh Young-soo said, "I am happy to gain new experiences in Thailand. I will provide systematic physical programs so that players can perform at their best and contribute to the team."

Meanwhile, Kanchanaburi has added coach Diego Gomes and physical coach Noh Young-soo to its existing coaching staff, including senior coach Lee Jeong-su, and is accelerating preparations for the 2026-27 season.
