Ashraf Abdel Aziz stated in an official statement: "To whom it may concern, we have not yet received the details regarding the complaint of player Ahmed Mostafa Mohamed Said 'Zizo', noting that:"

The decision will be issued on July 15, 2026.

A request for a copy of the decision rationale was submitted via email to the Football Association on July 15, 2026, at 7:12 PM.

The deadline for submitting a request for a copy of the decision's rationale to the Football Association is set for 16/7/2026, and it was delivered by hand.
