Reasons for Al Ahly's Failure to Contract Ribeiro's Replacement
Al Ahly's officials have not yet succeeded in contracting a new foreign coach after the dismissal of the Spanish José Ribeiro at the end of August.
According to media reports, the Al Ahly management has entered into negotiations with several foreign coaches in the past period, but they failed to reach an agreement with any of them due to their insistence on receiving the full contract value in case of dismissal.
Sources confirmed that foreign coaches' insistence on this condition came after Ribeiro's dismissal just 90 days after his arrival in Egypt.
According to media sources, Al Ahly officials are leaning towards keeping Emad Nassar in the position of head coach until next December, pending the hiring of a new foreign coach.
