🔴 Al Ahly Decide to Sanction Amr Zahran

Al Ahly have decided to impose an internal disciplinary sanction on Amr Zahran, a member of the club’s senior basketball team, following an incident during the match against Canal.

The decision comes as part of the club’s internal regulations and its emphasis on maintaining the rules and standards governing its teams.

📋 Club Officials Discuss the Punishment

Al Ahly officials are currently holding a meeting to determine the specific punishment that will be imposed on Zahran.

The club is expected to announce the sanction within the coming hours after reviewing the details of the incident and deciding on the appropriate action under its internal regulations.

⚖️ Could the Basketball Federation Take Action?

Questions are also being raised over whether the Egyptian Basketball Federation could impose an additional punishment on Zahran.

According to the details reported about the match, the referee returned to the IRS system during the game and awarded the infringement against a Canal player, a factor that could be considered when the federation reviews the incident.

📝 Referee’s Report Could Affect the Decision

Another important detail is that the referee reportedly did not include any information about the controversial incident in the official match report.

The absence of the incident from the referee’s report could become a factor when the Basketball Federation determines whether there are grounds for taking any additional disciplinary measures against the Al Ahly player.

⏳ Waiting for the Official Outcome

Al Ahly fans are now awaiting the announcement of the club’s internal punishment for Amr Zahran, while the Egyptian Basketball Federation’s position is also expected to become clearer.

The upcoming decisions will determine what measures are taken at both club level and under the regulations governing the competition.
