Coaching career

Al-Faisaly

After his playing career in 2012, he immediately became an assistant coach at Al-Faisaly FC under newly appointed Belgian manager Marc Brys who Charaï previously had worked together with at Berchem Sport.[1] The duo left Saudi Arabia at the end of 2013.

Beerschot

In July 2016, Charaï once again became Brys' assistant coach, this time at K Beerschot VA.[2] After two seasons, they left the club.

Sint-Truidense

At the end of May 2018, Brys was announced manager of Sint-Truidense V.V. and took Charaï with him again as his assistant.[3] On 26 November 2019, Brys and his staff, including Charaï, was fired.[4]

OH Leuven

In the summer 2020, Charaï joined Oud-Heverlee Leuven, once again as an assistant to Marc Brys.[5]
