The appointment of a foreign coach to the technical staff of Zamalek delays Zenati's assumption of the position of sporting director.

The board of directors of Zamalek Club has decided to postpone the official announcement regarding Hossam El-Zanaty's acceptance of the position of sporting director for the team. This decision was made during a meeting held yesterday to discuss several important decisions and files related to the team's future in the upcoming period.

The postponement was due to a lack of agreement on the issue of hiring a foreign coach to join the assistant coaching staff under Moataz Gamal. The club is seeking to finalize the coaching staff before revealing some administrative and technical arrangements related to the team.

Negotiations with the Danish Coach Stall

A Danish coach has entered the list of candidates to take on a role within the assistant staff under Moataz Gamal, as part of efforts to complete the coaching elements for the upcoming phase.

However, negotiations did not materialize after the Danish coach signed with another team, causing this option to falter and preventing an agreement on his joining Zamalek's coaching staff.

The lack of resolution on this matter has led to the postponement of the announcement regarding Hossam El-Zanaty's appointment as sporting director, pending clarification on the assistant staff and stabilization of the next steps related to organizing work within the team.

Finalizing Technical and Administrative Files at Zamalek

The Zamalek board is working on discussing several important files concerning the team, both on the technical and administrative levels, as part of efforts to arrange the situation in the upcoming period.

The issue of hiring a foreign coach remains one of the topics under consideration, following the stalled negotiations with the Danish candidate, which opens the door to exploring other alternatives to strengthen the assistant staff under Moataz Gamal.

It is expected that clarity will emerge regarding the official announcement of Hossam El-Zanaty's appointment as sporting director after the situation concerning the coaching staff is resolved, according to developments in this matter in the coming period.

This comes amid ongoing discussions by the board regarding decisions related to the team's future, with anticipation of what the upcoming moves will yield concerning the completion of the coaching staff and the organization of administrative and sporting roles within the club.
