⚖️ Al Ahly move to close Thorup case officially
Al Ahly’s legal department 🔴 has completed a comprehensive file responding to the demands submitted by Danish head coach Jes Thorup and his agent in recent days, amid ongoing discussions about the coach’s future at the club ⚽💼.
The move comes as part of the club’s commitment to handling the situation in a strictly legal and organized manner, avoiding any informal negotiations that could lead to misinterpretations of the contract terms 📑⚖️.
📩 Full legal response prepared
Sources inside the club revealed that the official response includes a detailed clarification of all points sent by the Danish coach via email, with the club believing that some of these demands are not clearly supported by the signed contract 🧾🔴.
For this reason, Al Ahly decided to respond exclusively through the legal department, without entering into any direct discussions with the coach or his agent 💼⚽.
🚫 No direct negotiations
The club has decided not to hold any direct meetings with Jes Thorup’s agent at this stage 🚫, preferring to keep all communication strictly official and written.
The club believes this approach ensures full protection of its rights and guarantees clear documentation of all exchanged communications 📧⚖️.
💰 Compensation and termination terms
According to reports, Al Ahly are preparing to officially inform the Danish coach of their intention to terminate the contract 💰.
The financial settlement includes:
🔴 A termination clause equivalent to 3 months’ salary
🔴 One month salary for June
This reflects the club’s commitment to respecting contractual obligations despite the decision to part ways ⚽📑.
📩 Coach’s email triggered the process
Jes Thorup had previously sent an email to Al Ahly’s management after the end of the domestic season, informing them that he was traveling to Denmark for a short vacation ✈️🇩🇰.
He also stated he would return on June 22, and included several technical requests and visions for the upcoming season, which led the club to escalate the matter to the legal department 🔴📑.
⚖️ Email-only communication strategy
Al Ahly believe that official email communication is the most appropriate method at this stage 📧, especially since the coach himself initiated communication in the same way.
This ensures:
💼 Proper documentation
