The Police Union Courier
Match28 Nov 2026
Police Union taken apart
0‑3 to ENPPI, and it was every bit as bad as the number suggests. There are defeats you argue about and defeats you apologise for; this was the second kind.

Mohamed Abdelsalam asks to leave Police Union
“I have given everything here and I need a new challenge.” The request is formal, and the relationship will never be quite the same again.
The terraces30 Nov 2026
The boos come down from three sides
“We pay for this every fortnight. The least we want is somebody who looks like he cares.” 9 of the 30 senior players walked off into it; the rest were not playing.
Squad30 Nov 2026
Ezequiel Viola in a row with a teammate
It was not about football and everybody who saw it knows that. Two men who have to play together on Saturday said things at Police Union this week that will take longer than a week to unsay.
Squad30 Nov 2026
Lucas Santos wants to go home
“I have given this everything, but my family is not here and neither am I, not really.” A footballer can be coached out of bad form. Nobody has ever been coached out of this, and Police Union know it.
Squad30 Nov 2026
Words at Police Union training over how hard people work
Somebody said out loud what several people had been thinking. Gabriel Morales is at the centre of it, and the squad will now find out whether the standard rises or the pair of them simply stop speaking.
Squad30 Nov 2026
No hiding place for Adama Niane
“I pick players who do the work. All of it.” No name was spoken; every camera still turned to Adama Niane, and the manager let it.
Boardroom30 Nov 2026
Doors closed at Police Union
The music was off and the showers ran late. What was said in that dressing room stays there, but Saturday will publish the minutes.
Player ratings30 Nov 2026
Ahmed Yasser could not find anything
5.35. Every footballer has these and most of them happen away from a full ground; his did not, and he will be aware of that all week.
In brief
- Player ratings A day to forget for Kalen Ryden
- Player ratings Off the pace: Hamza Belahouel
- Player ratings An afternoon Mahmoud Ezzat will want back
