Oct 18, 2026

A source from Wadi Degla has revealed the nature of the new role that Hassan Beltaji will take on after his appointment as the technical director of the club's football sector, a position that no other club in Egyptian football has previously adopted.

The source confirmed in exclusive statements that the technical director of the football sector will have a role and technical vision, and will be authorized to analyze certain technical aspects of matches in collaboration with the head coach. Any technical observations will be discussed with the current head coach, Mustafa Shbita.

The source explained that the role of the technical director of the football sector is quite similar to that of the head coach, as he has the authority to address mistakes. However, the difference is that he will discuss these matters with the head coach rather than with the players. It was noted that there are local coaches in the youth and junior teams who will work with Beltaji to find solutions aimed at developing the football sector in the club as a whole.

Sayf Taqa to miss Degla's match against Petrojet due to yellow card accumulation, will return against Al Ahly Bank

Wadi Degla will be without the services of Sayf Taqa in their upcoming match against Petrojet, as part of the sixth round of the Egyptian Premier League, due to suspension from accumulated yellow cards, having received his third yellow card, which rules him out of the next match.

Taqa's absence poses a challenge for Wadi Degla's coaching staff, who are striving to prepare all team members in the best possible way before the important match, especially given the significance of the game and the team's desire to continue their league journey to achieve a positive result that will help them advance in the standings.

The coaching staff is expected to work during upcoming training sessions to identify a suitable replacement to compensate for the player's absence, while considering the available options within the team according to the technical needs and the nature of the match against Petrojet, to ensure maintaining balance within the lineup and not being affected by the absence of one of the players.
