Learn about the financial compensation that Shikabala received for appearing with Amr Adib

Zamalek club player, Mahmoud Abdel Razek, known as “Shikabala”, received 20 thousand dollars (about 320,000 Egyptian pounds), to appear on the story program on MBC Egypt, which hosted the player yesterday evening, Saturday, according to what was confirmed by sources close to the Zamalek leader.

The 35-year-old Shikabala conducted his first extensive dialogue since he joined the Zamalek club in the youth sector at the age of 15, as the player had apologized for many media occasions before.

The sources confirmed that Shikabala initially asked for 500,000 pounds to conduct that interview, but the value was reduced to match what the former Al-Ahly and current Pyramids player Ramadan Sobhi received, before Shikabala finally agreed to the offer.

Wide reactions were accompanied by Shikabala's episode with the media, Amr Adib, who topped the social media platforms.

The former Zamalek player and media figure Ahmed Hossam "Mido" commended Shikabala's presence in that episode, stressing that the player was able to get more sympathy after his answer to Amr Adib's questions was very intelligent, as Mido described.
