The Egyptian Handball Federation, led by Khaled Fathi, has announced the appointment of Rami Youssef, the former star of Zamalek and the national team, as the assistant coach for Egypt's men's B team.
This decision is part of a strategy aimed at strengthening local coaching staff and leveraging the expertise of handball stars in Egypt who have a rich history of achievements both domestically and internationally.
The national team's coaching staff is focusing on developing a comprehensive and long-term preparation plan aimed at readying key players and discovering new talents to bolster the Pharaohs' lineup. The federation's management is also working towards proper preparations for the African Games, which will take place in Egypt in August 2027, where the team hopes to deliver a performance worthy of Egyptian handball and reach the podium in front of their fans.
Rami Youssef is known for his coaching skills and extensive experience in handball, and he looks forward to starting the first training camps for the team under head coach Fernando Barbieto, with high hopes and ambitions to maintain Egypt's dominance in Africa and compete strongly in upcoming international tournaments.
