Despite delivering the club's first trophy since the inaugural season of the A-League in winning the FFA Cup, on 24 July Josep Gombau stood down as the manager of the club, citing family reasons for his decision. The club's technical director and mentor of Gombau while at FC Barcelona, Guillermo Amor, was instated as the club's new manager for the 2015–16 A-League season.^[1]
