Sports critic Amr Aldardir published an intriguing comment regarding Ahmed Sayed Zizo's joining Al Ahly.

Aldardir said on Facebook: "By God, even if Al Ahly signed Zizo, the deal of Abdullah El-Said will remain the deal of the century, and the strongest technical blow that Al Ahly has faced in its history."

He continued: "Those who lived through that period and know its details will understand well what I am talking about... At that time, there was a huge crisis, and there were significant attempts to bring him back after he signed with Zamalek. Abdullah was truly a game-changing player at that time, and his technical value was very high."

He added: "When Zamalek loses a player, they handle the situation differently, without exaggerating or getting into major spirals. When Abdullah left and signed with Zamalek, there were significant movements to try to bring him back, which illustrates how impactful the decision was at that time."
