Tomorrow: John Edward’s Deadline for Mohamed El-Sayed to Decide on His Zamalek Contract Renewal
Tomorrow marks the end of the deadline set by Zamalek’s sporting director John Edward for player Mohamed El-Sayed to decide whether to renew his contract with the club, amid fears he might move to Al Ahly or pursue a European opportunity.
Tomorrow, Tuesday, is the final day of the deadline set by John Edward, Zamalek’s sporting director, for Mohamed El-Sayed to make his final decision regarding his contract renewal with the White Castle ⚽🏹.
Over the past few days, the club official held several meetings with the player in an attempt to reach an agreement, as the technical staff wants him to stay, and the club management is eager to keep him from joining Al Ahly.
The player is expected to make his final decision within hours, either to accept Zamalek’s renewal offer or to pursue a professional career abroad 🌍.
El-Sayed had been stalling on renewing his contract, which led to backlash from Zamalek fans, who criticized him during the team’s last match against Dekedaha of Somalia in the CAF Confederation Cup preliminary round. He received support from his teammate, Angolan forward Chico Banza, who posted a message of encouragement on social media before later deleting it.
According to club sources, Zamalek offered El-Sayed a five-year contract worth EGP 25 million, with EGP 3 million in the first season and an annual increase of EGP 1 million, totaling 25 million pounds over the duration.
However, Mohamed El-Sayed insisted on his dream of playing in Europe, saying he would make a final decision after returning from the U-20 World Cup, though he has yet to confirm his stance 😐⚽.
It’s worth noting that the player recently returned from Chile after representing Egypt’s youth national team at the World Cup and participated in Zamalek’s last match against Dekedaha in continental competition.
