The future of Abdullah Al -Saeed, the veteran Zamalek star, is still being ambiguous, in light of the end of his contract at the end of last season, without clear indications of renewal, which opens the door to the possibility of his departure from the white castle after a short period of joining.
Financial disagreement hinders renewal
Informed sources revealed that the negotiations between the administration of Zamalek and Abdullah Al -Saeed were recently stopped due to a clear financial dispute, as the player asked to obtain 35 million pounds in one season for two seasons, while the club administration sees that the value of the contract should not exceed 20 million pounds annually, especially with the player reaching the age of forty.
Anger and ignoring
The source confirmed that the player feels anger and resentment because of what he described as “administrative disregard” and not to open any communication channels about his future, which he considered an indication of the unwillingness to continue within the team.
He pointed out that Al -Saeed underwent a treatment session in Germany during the past weeks due to back pain, then he got a rest period before returning to Cairo, but he did not receive any contact from the club since his return.
One last deadline and alternatives offered
The player gave a final deadline for the Zamalek administration that extends until the end of this week, pending the resolution of his position on the renewal. In the event that an agreement is not reached, Al -Saeed will go to study other offers he received from clubs within the Egyptian League.
Despite the player’s adherence to the idea of ​​continuing in Zamalek, he expressed flexibility in negotiation, by preparing to give up some of his financial demands in order to survive, but this is seriously conditional on negotiation.
He went inside Zamalek for non -renewal
From within the corridors of the club, strong indicators appeared stating that there is a clear orientation of the lack of renewal of Abdullah Al -Saeed’s contract, and the only period he spent with the team, especially with his absence from the period of preparation for the new season, and not being included in the plans of the technical staff at the present time.
Some officials believe that the current stage requires renewal and relying on young elements, which reduces the feasibility of the continuation of a player at the age of forty within the starting lineup, despite his great experience.
