لن يبتسم حتى تعود البطولات

Zamalek fans will not be allowed to attend the club's training in order to avoid any complications after the team's 1-1 home draw with Asyut Petroleum in the Egyptian League, assistant coach Ahmed Ramzi said on Wednesday.

"Zamalek boss Manuel Cajuda is aiming to keep the players away from any psychological pressure after the disappointing result," Ramzi told FilGoal.com

Zamalek were held to a 1-1 draw by bottom side Asyut Petroleum, the result that prevented the Cairo club from snatching the league summit after leaders Ismaili tied Arab Contractors.

On the other hand, several Zamalek players and board members have launched an attack on Cajuda for the club's mediocre performance.

Skipper Hazem Emam, Amr Zaki and Magdi Atwa accused the Portuguese manager of underestimating Asyut as he fielded a below-par line-up.

Zamalek vice-president Hazem Fawzi and board member Omar Haridi said that chairman Mamdouh Abbas is the main reason behind the team's displays because he refuses to fire Cajuda.

In case Zamalek sack Cajuda, they have to pay him $250,000 as a penalty for annulling the contract, that's why Abbas doesn't want to let go of him, according to Fawzi and Haridi.

"The persons who attack the technical staff were the first ones to congratulate us after our victory over Ismaili back in September," Ramzi wondered.

"We will continue in our post unless the chairman decides to part ways with us," he added.
