Yves Tourup, the head coach of Al Ahly of Egypt, held a special meeting with Moroccan player Ashraf Bencherki to discuss the reasons behind the decline in his performance recently, after the coaching staff noticed a drop in his output compared to his initial period with the team.

Press reports stated that the coach spoke candidly with the player, urging him to regain his offensive effectiveness, while at the same time affirming his confidence in the player's technical abilities, despite his dissatisfaction with his performance in recent matches.

According to the same source, Ben Sharqi explained that playing on the right wing affected his performance, noting that this position does not give him the full freedom to showcase his abilities, and that he feels more comfortable and delivers a stronger performance when playing on the left wing.

The reports added that the coach promised to study the matter during upcoming training sessions, with the aim of positioning the player in a role that ensures optimal performance, especially as the team enters a crucial phase of the season.
