Zamalek's Fetouh seeks contract clarity before season start

Ahmed Fetouh, the left-back for Egyptian club Zamalek, has requested that his contract situation be resolved before the start of the new season. Fetouh wants to finalize his future to fully concentrate on the team's upcoming matches in the Egyptian Premier League and the African Champions League.

Fetouh's contract with Zamalek is set to expire at the end of the next season, meaning he is eligible to sign a pre-contract with any club during the January transfer window. While he has reportedly received offers from both domestic and international clubs, he has not yet made a final decision, having previously expressed a desire to continue his career with Zamalek.

A club official, who wished to remain anonymous, stated that Fetouh is a key player and the club cannot afford to lose him. The official indicated that contract renewal negotiations would commence after the season begins and the team's league performance is clearer. The club's current focus is on resolving immediate issues, including player dues and ensuring all players are present for the team's pre-season camp.
