A possible extension of the contract
In the same context, Youssef explained that the club is currently studying the extension of the contracts of a number of players in accordance with the technical needs of the team, noting that Ashour is among the names presented within the plan to preserve the basic strength. He added that the team missed the player’s efforts during the world championship, highlighting its technical value and increasing the importance of its readiness for the coming period.
The player’s desire to return
Ashour insists on accompanying the team’s mission to Spain, even if he is not physically ready to participate in the training completely, as he seeks to stay close to the team’s atmosphere during the preparation period, and to continue his qualification program under the supervision of Al -Ahly’s medical staff in the team’s environment.
