Mohamed Salah’s Crisis With The “Pharaohs” To Where?!

Ahmed Hossam Mido, the former Egyptian national team star and current presenter on the Egyptian Al-Mehwar channel, made a surprise regarding the English club Liverpool’s request to exempt the Pharaohs’ captain, Mohamed Salah, from the national team’s camp during the current month of March. Mido spoke about rumors confirming the existence of disagreements between Salah and the Egyptian national team coach, Hossam Hassan, against the backdrop of the latter and his brother, the national team manager, Ibrahim Hassan, criticizing Salah’s technical performance during the recent period, especially during the recent African Nations Championship. Mido said, "I cannot explain Liverpool's speech. I kept thinking and I do not want to be unfair to anyone or be unfair to anyone. Liverpool's speech has no meaning. Why is this dealing with the national team? What is the reason? Has Salah reached the point where he has had enough of being with the team? Egypt national team?". He added: “This speech only has one meaning. My only explanation is that Mohamed Salah has reached this situation (as long as you will remove everything from me, then get rid of me). Is it really possible for Salah to have reached this situation? "I'm just trying to understand why." He continued: “Salah had to wait and see if the injury would reach Finn. Always, when a player has the intention of being in the camp, he will do everything he can to be in the camp, and he will be patient until the last minute.” He added: “In Liverpool’s match against Manchester City on March 10, the Liverpool Echo newspaper, all of its news is correct and confirmed, confirmed that Salah, 100%, will be ready to participate in the City match on March 10, that is, a week before the national team’s camp. Even if Salah, he will not participate in the match. The City match, Salah is sure, he is careful not to make people upset with him, nor the technical staff, nor the Football Association, nor the public. Everyone loves Salah, because he is a legend.” Mido confirmed that “Mohamed Salah’s behavior is incomprehensible. Even if he will not participate in the City match, he will let the medical team examine him and hold a meeting with Hossam and Ibrahim Hassan and take pictures with them and show all the people that there is no problem, and there is no objection to him attending the first match against New Zealand.” He concluded: “The only meaning for me is that Salah has had enough of being with the Egyptian national team. I don’t want to say more than that. Mohamed Salah is smart, and the people who work around him are smart, and they know that this speech will cause problems.” While the journalist Ahmed Schubert revealed the reasons for Hossam Hassan, the coach of the Egyptian national team, including Mohamed Salah in the March camp despite the player’s injury, stressing that “Hossam Hassan did what he had to do and summoned Mohamed Salah to the March camp list. Liverpool club requested that Salah complete his rehabilitation program and not join the Pharaohs, and the national team staff.” Egypt refused and said, “We have the right to see the player and undergo a medical examination, and this is normal.” Schubert added, “Salah is upset with Hossam Hassan’s statements before he took charge of coaching the Egyptian national team, and this is not lost on anyone, because Salah is sensitive and annoyed by these criticisms. If Hossam Hassan announced the list of professionals without Salah, we would not have finished, and Salah himself would be upset. How could he be outside the national team? Egypt". Schubert continued, “They said Ibrahim Hassan communicated with the professionals, but the fact of his communication with Salah was not specifically determined. It is not important that Salah plays the friendly tournament. The important thing is that he is not overly sensitive, because the friendly tournament is not important and we will not judge Hossam Hassan during it, but a healthy atmosphere must be provided for the team.” Schubert added, “It is possible that Hossam Hassan’s good statements about Mohamed Salah in the press conference did not reach Salah. Here, the Football Association and the Minister of Sports must intervene to resolve this dispute. There is no shame in bringing the points of view closer together and removing the sediments between the two parties with a sensible and wise intervention, because we need Hossam Hassan and Mohamed Salah.” For the sake of the Egyptian national team, and do not heat the world and say that Hossam Hassan will exclude Mohamed Salah, and do not say that Salah will retire from international football.” The Egyptian Football Association received an official letter from the English club Liverpool, in which the latter requested that Salah be exempted from being in the national team’s camp during the international break this March. The media center of the Egyptian Football Association said that a letter had already arrived from Liverpool requesting that Salah be exempted from the next Egyptian national team camp to complete his qualification. He added: Any professional player has the right of the Egyptian national team, especially since it is at a time of international agenda, and the issue of including him or not is in the hands of the national team’s technical staff, led by Hossam Hassan. He explained: It is still too early to decide the matter, and if Mohamed Salah plays any match in the time before the start of the camp, we will adhere to his inclusion, and he will be examined and his readiness determined by the medical staff of the Egyptian national team.
