Al Ahly have called an emergency meeting in which Yassin Mansour, the President of the Al Ahly Company will be present as they discuss several ‘important’ matters.
The Egyptian giants who have dropped to 10 points behind reigning champions Zamalek SC after their recent string of indifferent results have yet to find form under Ricardo Soares.
Having replaced three-time CAF Champions League winner Pitso Mosimane, the Portugese tactician who was hailed for his work with Gil Vicent last season had major boots to fill.
And despite some impressive attack-minded displays, results have not been forthcoming with four wins, two draws and two defeats in their last eight league games.
While the results of the 2021/22 season are likely to be discussed, their new sponsorship opportunities, technical management, kit production and budgets for next season are likely to be key topics as well as a potential rebrand of their youth sector with reports in Egypt stating they are considering altering their club logo for the academy sides.
The financial statistics for the current season and income projection will also be laid before the board to prepare for the incoming season of new commercial and marketing endeavours, which includes the potential of the African Super League – which is set to be launched in Tanzania by the Confederation of African Football (CAF) this month.
It remains to be seen whether the Red Devils will place their faith in Mosimane’s successor Soares, who has so far not lived up to the club’s expectations early on.
