Zamalek club president, Mortada Mansour, retreated from his previous statement of dedicating the league title to Al-Ahly, and not completing the league championship, as he confirmed in a new statement to the Zamalek TV channel: I did not say that Al-Ahly is the champion of the current season.
Murtada Mansour had previously stressed that he does not mind declaring Al-Ahly the champion of the league competition for the 2019-2020 season, for the public good, and in order to protect Al-Ahly players, before other clubs, from the risk of infection with the new Corona virus (Covid-19).
The club president returned and denied that, and he explained: The league this year is as if it was not and this is what we wrote in the memo, and there is no league arrangement, last season's ranking will be adopted, meaning that Al-Ahly will go to the African Championship because he is the champion of the competition, and with him Zamalek because he is the runner-up, and the Confederation will be there And pyramids. "
He continued: The three points that were deducted from the Zamalek club because we did not play for the Al-Ahly match in the league, and the decisions taken as if they were not, every club defends its rights, but there is a rise for the second-class clubs because they are tired, each club defends its rights.
Controversial is the widespread video of Morteza Mansour, which was for the channel “Echo Al-Balad” earlier, in which he confirmed that there is a memorandum from clubs that refuse to complete the league acknowledging that they do not mind Al-Ahly's crowning of the 2019-2020 title.
