What is the truth behind Al Zawraa's negotiations with Ahmed Salah

In the wake of the heavy blow that Al Zawraa suffered, falling to a resounding three-goal defeat against Al Jolan, strict administrative decisions followed, along with the official resignation of veteran coach Basim Qasim.

Speculation is rife regarding the identity of the next captain to lead the white brigade in the upcoming phase.

Amid the turmoil and frantic search for a way out of the crisis, some media sources have speculated about coach Ahmed Salah being nominated to take over the managerial role at Al Zawraa, succeeding Basim Qasim.

However, the information and news coming from within the club's corridors have confirmed unequivocally that these reports are untrue and have no basis in reality, and are merely media speculations in light of the technical chaos left by the recent defeat against Al Jolan and the decline in results at both the local and continental levels.

In the meantime, the administrative body of Al Zawraa is holding intensive and urgent meetings to consult and study the available options, aiming to reach a final and decisive agreement on naming a new coaching staff capable of lifting the team from its current slump, reorganizing the squad, and regulating the atmosphere in the dressing room before it's too late, to ensure the return of the team to the path of real competition and to reconcile with the angry fans.
