Ahmed Hamdi, the Zamalek star, has not reached an agreement with his club's management to renew his contract, which expires at the end of the current season.

According to press reports, negotiations to renew Ahmed Hamdi's contract with Zamalek have reached a dead end, as neither party has made any tangible progress despite the player entering the free transfer period.

The reports confirmed that the player believes his exclusion from the main lineup is not due to a weakness in his performance, but rather a deliberate punitive decision to pressure him regarding the renewal issue, despite having fully regained his physical and technical readiness.

Hamdi's future is now at stake; either the management succeeds in convincing him to stay, or the player leaves as a free agent at the end of the season, which would represent another administrative setback in maintaining the core of the team.
