Head coach Hossam Hassan has named Nice defender Mohamed Abdelmonem in the professionals list for Egypt’s next camp, according to Al Gomhor. The outlet Ahmed Shobeir welcomed the decision.
Hossam Hassan, Egypt’s head coach, has included Mohamed Abdelmonem, the Nice defender, in the professionals list retained for Egypt’s next camp, according to Al Gomhor. The decision comes after the defender’s absence from the trip to South Sudan, an episode in which, according to the outlet Ahmed Shobeir, Abdelmonem had made a mistake.
The news was welcomed by Ahmed Shobeir, who called the decision the “best news” he had heard, according to the same source. He sees it above all as a sign of tolerance.
Words that do not erase the past
The outlet Ahmed Shobeir gave its analysis in remarks carried by Al Gomhor. “Captain Hossam Hassan has named Mohamed Abdelmonem in the professionals list for Egypt’s next camp, and it is the best news I have heard; the good thing is that there is tolerance,” he said.
The same commentator did not, however, erase the past: “I told you that Abdelmonem was entirely at fault in the matter of his failure to travel to South Sudan.”
A door said to remain open to all
The outlet then broadened its remarks to the national team’s leadership. “A new page with everyone,” he continued, stressing the importance of moving past disputes and giving a new chance to a player whose level has developed recently.
It also reports that Ibrahim Hassan, an Egyptian official, is said to have confirmed that the door remains open to all and that there is no problem with anyone. This is second-hand information.
The outlet finally insists on the common goal: “on the contrary, we want the players to be well and to serve the national team, and Abdelmonem is progressing well these days.”
Abdelmonem returns to the professionals list
For Abdelmonem, this call-up marks his return to the list of Egyptian professionals, after his absence from the trip to South Sudan, which Shobeir attributes to a mistake by the player. The OGC Nice defender thus sees his situation with the national team evolve, at a time when Shobeir highlights his recent progress.
The list drawn up by Hossam Hassan announces Egypt’s next camp, although the source does not specify a date or an opponent. Abdelmonem is therefore set to take part in this camp, with a view to the fixtures ahead.
