The Zamalek club’s football management, headed by John Edward, decided to terminate the contract with Belgian Yannick Ferreira hours before the Tala’ea El Gaish match. This decision came as a result of the team’s decline in level and unsatisfactory results, as Zamalek ranked fourth in the Egyptian League, which raised concerns among the fans and management. It was decided to inform Ferreira of the decision after the end of training.
After the decision to leave Ferreira, Zamalek management began searching for a suitable replacement to lead the team in the coming period, and officials are choosing between a number of national coaches, as part of their efforts to improve the current situation of the team, as the recent results were not as expected, which reflects the urgent need to change the training strategy and achieve positive results.
Zamalek is seeking to appoint a national coach before the Egyptian Super Cup match scheduled to be held in the Emirates, as the match will bring together the Zamalek, Al-Ahly, Pyramids and Ceramica clubs. This tournament represents a great opportunity for the team to regain confidence and recharge its energies before embarking on the league competitions, and to better determine their position in the ranking table.
In a not-so-distant context, Zamalek continued to lose points after tying with Al-Ahly Bank with one goal each. The match was part of the twelfth round of the Egyptian League, and Osama Faisal opened the scoring for Al-Ahly Bank via a penalty kick, before Chico Panza secured a draw for Zamalek, which embodies the difficult reality that the team has been experiencing recently.
