Ayman El-Ramady, the head coach of Zamalek, is facing a major challenge ahead of the Ceramica Cleopatra match in the fifth round of the Egyptian Premier League title race this season. The match is expected to be crucial in the team’s journey in the competition, but El-Ramady may find it difficult to manage the game due to the current circumstances surrounding his coaching staff.

According to a source close to Zamalek, the situation could become complicated if Ahmed Samir does not join training on Thursday, as he was supposed to join the team this week. If the delay continues until next Sunday, as agreed, El-Ramady will have to face the Ceramica Cleopatra match without one of his assistants, which will significantly affect the team’s tactical organization in such a crucial game.

Additionally, the team is facing another absence, with Ayman Abdel Aziz, the assistant coach, being suspended for one match due to events in the recent Al Ahly Bank match. This absence means that El-Ramady will have to manage the match with only one assistant, Hazem Emam, who recently joined the coaching staff. Hazem Emam is a new addition to the staff but has not had enough time to coordinate with the rest of the coaching team before this important match. The goalkeeper coach, Emad El-Mandouh, will remain with the staff but is considered separate from the other coaching members.

This comes at a critical time, as Zamalek faces Ceramica Cleopatra in what is considered a decisive match in the race for the title. Zamalek is in third place in the Premier League table with 40 points, putting them in a tough position, 7 points behind the top of the table. A win in this match is essential to keep the team's hopes alive in the title race.

Zamalek fans are hopeful that El-Ramady can overcome the tough circumstances he faces in this crucial match. If the team manages to win against Ceramica Cleopatra, it will give them a significant morale boost for the second half of the league, especially given the challenges the team is facing at this time.

Despite the absences in the coaching staff, Zamalek has a group of talented players who can make up for these challenges. The players are required to give their utmost effort to achieve victory and restore the team's confidence among the fans and management.

Looking ahead to the Ceramica Cleopatra match, both teams understand the importance of the game in the context of the title race. Ceramica Cleopatra has a strong team and has shown good form recently, which makes the match even more difficult for Zamalek, who faces additional challenges on the coaching staff front. However, despite these challenges, Zamalek is determined to perform at their best on the field, relying on El-Ramady's tactics and his ability to lead the team through these tough circumstances.

It can be said that this match will be a major test for head coach Ayman El-Ramady, who will need to show great adaptability and make the most of the resources available to him in order to secure the win.
