🔥 Gamal Abdel Hamid Reopens the Bezerra File.. “The Coach Was Right”

The fallout surrounding Juan Bezerra at Zamalek has continued after the Brazilian player’s desire to leave the club sparked widespread debate among supporters, particularly following his message to the club, board, coaching staff and teammates.

Amid the ongoing situation, former Zamalek star Gamal Abdel Hamid revisited previous comments made by former coach Hassan Shehata about Bezerra, arguing that recent developments have, in his view, proved that “El Moallem” was right in his assessment of the player. ⚽🔥

📢 Gamal Abdel Hamid: Hassan Shehata Was Right

Speaking on On Sport, Gamal Abdel Hamid said: “Everyone was upset with Hassan Shehata when he said Bezerra was seeking attention and acting, but the coach turned out to be right. We were the ones who were wrong.”

The former Zamalek star believes Bezerra’s current position has brought Shehata’s previous comments back into focus, particularly after the player insisted on leaving despite the strong relationship he had developed with the club and its supporters.

The comments come at a time when Bezerra’s future has become a major talking point, with the player publicly expressing his desire to pursue a new experience that he considers an important opportunity in his career.

🤍 “We Thought He Would Become Zamalek’s Coach”

Gamal Abdel Hamid also discussed the relationship that developed between Bezerra and Zamalek supporters, pointing to moments involving the player, his father and the fans that convinced many people that he had developed a deep attachment to the club.

“Because of Juan Bezerra and his father’s love for Zamalek in that moment and that hug, we said he would become Zamalek’s coach one day. And all of that disappeared because of what? An extra half a million?” Gamal said.

His comments reflect the disappointment felt by some observers over what they see as a contrast between the image that had developed around Bezerra’s relationship with Zamalek and his current determination to leave for a new opportunity.

🚨 Bezerra Apologizes While Insisting on Leaving

Juan Bezerra previously issued an apology to Zamalek, its board, teammates, coaching staff and supporters, while at the same time confirming that he remains determined to leave the club at this stage.

The player explained that his decision is connected to an opportunity he considers significant and one that may not come around again during his football career.

Bezerra published his message on his official Instagram account, emphasizing that he enjoyed an excellent season with Zamalek and was among the players who contributed to winning the league title before apologizing to everyone at the club.

💬 Player Ready to Accept Sanctions

Bezerra also confirmed that he is ready to accept any disciplinary measures or sanctions that the club may impose, while emphasizing his appreciation for the support he received from Zamalek supporters.

He pointed to the chants from the stands as a major source of motivation that helped him deliver his best performances during the previous season.

The player also stressed that his relationship with his teammates and everyone around the squad remains very good, while expressing gratitude to Zamalek’s administration and coaching staff for their efforts to convince him to stay.

💰 A New Opportunity or the End of a Special Relationship?

Bezerra explained that he has chosen to leave at this point because he believes the opportunity before him is exceptional and may not come around again, which is why he has maintained his position despite his appreciation for Zamalek and its fans.

The player insisted that he gave everything for the team during the previous season and that his decision does not mean a lack of respect for the club. Instead, he wants to take on a new challenge under the conditions set by Zamalek.

🏹 Zamalek Faces Another Major Test

The Bezerra situation now presents Zamalek’s administration with a difficult task: dealing with the player’s desire to leave while simultaneously protecting the club’s rights and interests.

At the same time, Gamal Abdel Hamid’s comments have reignited the debate over Bezerra’s character and performances, as he believes the latest developments have strengthened Hassan Shehata’s previous assessment of the player.

Do you agree with Gamal Abdel Hamid that Hassan Shehata was right about Bezerra, or does the player have the right to pursue an opportunity he believes could change his career? 🔥🏹
