Ismaili sacked manager Ismael Hefni and appointed Emad Soliman as his successor, the club announced.

"Soliman is officially appointed," Ismaili's stand-in chairman Ibrahim Ashour told FilGoal.com.

Football director Ali Gheat was also fired.

There will be no replacement for him, according to Ashour.

Former Ismaili stars Ahmed Al-Agouz and Khaled Al-Qammash will assist Soliman.

Ismaili are fourth in the league with 35 points, one behind second-placed Petrojet.

They still have one match in hand.
