Shadab Iftikhar is a Pakistani-English football manager. Since May 2016, he has served as manager of Bayangol FC of the Mongolia Premier League and assistant coach of the Mongolian national team since June 2016. He currently holds an UEFA "A" license.
In addition to league coaching experience, Iftikhar has worked with numerous academies in England including: Billy Stewart International Academy, Stuart Gelling International Academy, Preston North End Community, Pro Vision Academy, and Real Mahad Academy of which he served as director. He has also served as a scout for Roberto Martinez at Wigan Athletic and Everton for two years at each club.
In May 2010, Iftikhar was named the reserve team manager for Hesketh Bank A.F.C. after previously working with the junior teams since 2007 at age 17 while working on his early coaching badges. In 2015, he was named manager of the senior squad the day before the season began. Despite working with a completely new squad and a difficult start to the season, the team finished out of the relegation zone. He also continued to strengthen the reserve squad and saw it promoted to the top reserve league that season. He declined an offer to continue being the squad's manager and left the club following the season. While at Hesketh, he was mentored by Dave Sutton, former professional player and manager of Rochdale.
In June 2012 Iftikar was appointed a first team coach of Nelson F.C. of the North West Counties Football League prior to the 2012/13 season. In October 2012 he temporarily took charge of the senior team after co-managers Robert Grimes and Michael Morrison resigned in October 2012.
He was named manager of the university men's team for the University of Central Lancashire which competes in the BUSA Football League for the 2015 season.
