Hazem Fattouh: I was surprised by Obama’s move to Pyramids
Hazem Fattouh, the players’ agent, explained that a clause had been placed in the contract of Youssef Obama, the Pyramids player, to be equal to the highest contract for a player within the club
Fattouh added in television statements. On Al-Nahar channel: “Obama’s contract included that his contract would be automatically terminated if this clause was not implemented, but it was not used, and it was put in place as an honorary act only.”
He added: “I was surprised by Obama’s departure to Pyramids, and Zamalek tried to renew his contract 3 times, and there was an eagerness to continue it, but the player decided to leave, and this may be because he will not be the first choice for the technical director in the new season.”

He continued: “I was in favor of Obama continuing within the team and proving himself, and I was saddened by his decision, and very sad about his behavior in managing the file of leaving Zamalek this summer.”
The players’ agent continued: “The agreement with Obama was that the priority was Zamalek or traveling abroad, but he took another third path without consulting me. The fans and popularity of Zamalek are worth more money than any other club, and he did not consult me in his move.”
