🚨 Al Ahly Puts an End to Fake Ammouta Accounts

Al Ahly Club has taken an official and decisive step to end the controversy caused by fake accounts using the name of Moroccan Hussein Ammouta, the first-team head coach, after these accounts exploited the coach’s name and attributed statements and positions to him that had nothing to do with him, coinciding with the controversy surrounding the omission of Taher Mohamed Taher from the squad against Arab Contractors.

Al Ahly did not wait for these claims to continue spreading across social media platforms. The club used its official accounts to clarify the truth and confirm that Hussein Ammouta does not have any official personal accounts on social media platforms.

The club explained that the Moroccan head coach does not have accounts on Facebook, X, or Instagram. Therefore, any statements or news circulated through pages carrying Ammouta’s name do not represent the coach in any way. 📢

⚖️ Al Ahly Takes Legal Action Against Impersonating Pages

Al Ahly did not limit its response to simply denying any connection between Hussein Ammouta and the circulating accounts. The club also announced that it had taken legal measures against pages impersonating the head coach and publishing statements attributed to him.

The issue became more serious because one of the pages carrying Ammouta’s name appeared with a verification badge on Facebook, which could lead some followers to believe that the page was official and that its published content actually came from Al Ahly’s head coach.

The page contributed to the spread of various statements and narratives recently, before some of these posts were circulated by other accounts and websites as genuine statements. This prompted Al Ahly’s management to intervene quickly to settle the controversy and stop the circulation of inaccurate information in the coach’s name. 🔥

⚽ Taher Mohamed Taher Controversy Fuels the Story

The fake accounts were directly linked to the Taher Mohamed Taher controversy after they exploited the player’s omission from Al Ahly’s squad against Arab Contractors and began publishing narratives and statements attributed to Hussein Ammouta regarding the reasons behind his absence.

Taher’s omission raised several questions, especially since the player had started Al Ahly’s first three league matches before being left out of the squad for the Arab Contractors match.

With no official clarification at the beginning, various speculations spread across social media, with claims emerging that there was a disagreement between the player and the head coach.

However, these claims quickly came under scrutiny after Al Ahly confirmed that Ammouta does not have any personal social media accounts and that the statements published through these pages had nothing to do with him.

🎯 The Real Reason Behind Taher’s Omission

Away from the speculation circulating on social media, Taher Mohamed Taher’s omission from the Arab Contractors match was due to technical reasons, according to Wael Gomaa, Al Ahly’s football director.

The decision was primarily connected to the coaching staff’s vision under Hussein Ammouta and the requirements of the match, particularly because the Arab Contractors game required dealing with a different tactical situation, with the possibility of defensive organization and limited spaces in front of Al Ahly’s players.

Taher Mohamed Taher possesses qualities that rely on exploiting space, speed, and movement behind the defensive line, making his selection closely connected to the nature of each match and its technical requirements.

Therefore, the player’s absence from the squad does not itself indicate a personal dispute between him and the head coach, as some accounts attempted to suggest. Instead, it falls within the technical choices of the coaching staff. ⚽

🛡️ Al Ahly Settles the Controversy and Protects Its Coaching Staff

Al Ahly’s move reflects a clear desire to separate official information from content circulated by unknown or impersonating pages, especially since any statement attributed to the head coach can create controversy within the team and affect the relationship between the supporters, players, and coaching staff.

Al Ahly’s management appears to have treated the matter as more than just social media posts, particularly because it involved impersonating the head coach and publishing statements that could affect the team’s stability.

This led to the decision to pursue legal measures in an attempt to prevent similar incidents and confront accounts that exploit the names of well-known sporting figures to generate attention and engagement.

The most important message for supporters is to deal carefully with any statements circulated on social media and not consider an account carrying the name of a player or coach to be official without verifying it through the club’s recognized channels. 📱

🏆 Al Ahly Seeks Fourth Straight Win Against Arab Contractors

The controversy comes as Al Ahly prepares to face Arab Contractors on Wednesday evening in the fourth round of the Egyptian Premier League.

Al Ahly enters the match with high confidence after collecting the maximum nine points from its first three matches. The team began its campaign with a 3-2 victory over ENPPI, followed by a 2-0 win over ZED, before beating Smouha 1-0.

Al Ahly has 9 points from three matches and is looking to secure a fourth consecutive victory and reach 12 points as it makes a strong start to its challenge for the top of the league table. 🔴🏆

Arab Contractors, meanwhile, enters the match with 3 points, having recorded one victory and two defeats at the beginning of its league campaign.

As the match approaches, Al Ahly’s focus remains on the pitch and the competition, while the club’s official move has closed the door on fake accounts that attempted to exploit Hussein Ammouta’s name and link his alleged statements to the Taher Mohamed Taher controversy.

In the end, the message for supporters remains clear: content posted on social media does not become an official statement simply because it carries the coach’s name. The real confirmation comes through the club’s official channels. 🔥⚽
