Zamalek SC is facing a new crisis this summer after Tunisian striker Seifeddine Jaziri submitted a formal request to leave the club, citing delayed financial dues amounting to millions of Egyptian pounds. The situation places the club in a difficult position as it struggles with financial constraints and administrative uncertainty.

Sources close to the player confirmed that Jaziri has grown increasingly frustrated with the club's failure to fulfill its contractual obligations, despite repeated promises. The player’s representatives have begun exploring offers from Gulf and North African clubs, with the aim of securing a transfer during the upcoming summer window.
Jaziri’s departure would leave a noticeable gap in Zamalek’s attacking lineup, especially considering his key role over the past two seasons. The club’s inability to retain its top talent may further complicate its efforts to build a competitive squad for the next season, particularly in light of recent bans from registering new players due to financial violations.

Meanwhile, Zamalek’s board is reportedly working on a financial settlement plan to address the player’s dues in an attempt to persuade him to stay or at least ensure a profitable transfer that aligns with the club’s current needs.

This latest development adds to a growing list of challenges facing Zamalek, which include managerial instability, contract disputes with other players, and mounting pressure from fans for a clear and ambitious roadmap for the future.
