Mees Kaandorp was unplayable

Successful dribbles: 49. He went past people as if he had been told there was a prize for it, and by the end the full-back had stopped pretending to try.

Market31 Aug 2026

Ahmed Ayman hands in a written request

“I have nothing bad to say about this place. I just need to be somewhere else.” It is in writing now, which changes what Wadi Degla can pretend not to have heard.

Squad31 Aug 2026

Words exchanged at Wadi Degla

Franck Boli and a teammate said things this week that will take longer than a week to unsay. It was not about football, and both of them play on Saturday.

Market31 Aug 2026

Wadi Degla get their man

The chase for Mostafa Aboul-Kheir ended with $12.0K changing hands and El Masry out of reasons to say no. The supporters will judge the fee the only way that matters: on Saturdays.

Transfer targets31 Aug 2026

No deal for Ali Hassan at that price

Wadi Degla offered $11.0K; Masr El Makasa said it was not close. The manager will be told the money is still there for the right player, which is what managers are told.

Transfer targets31 Aug 2026

Wadi Degla rebuffed over Monnapule Saleng

Not now, not at any price the club was prepared to say out loud. Mamelodi Sundowns have kept their man, and Wadi Degla go back to a list with one name crossed off it.

Match29 Aug 2026

Wadi Degla find a way past Military Production

Military Production made Wadi Degla work for it, but the scoreboard read 2‑1 at the end and the table does not ask how.

Market31 Aug 2026

Eyes on Ahmed Abdin again

The phone has started ringing about Ahmed Abdin again, and this time the name on the line is Police Union. Wadi Degla are listening politely and promising nothing.

The dugout31 Aug 2026

The manager makes an example of Salah Rico

“If you cannot run for the shirt, somebody else will wear it.” No name was used and none was needed; every player in that room knew who it was for.

Market10 Aug 2026

Wadi Degla turn down Aswan for Franck Boli

The offer was not close and it was refused without much discussion. Whether the second one is refused as quickly is another matter.

Transfer targets10 Aug 2026

Wadi Degla rebuffed over Moustafa Zeidan

Not now, not at any price the club was prepared to say out loud. El Masry have kept their man, and Wadi Degla go back to a list with one name crossed off it.

Squad10 Aug 2026

Amr Hossam signs a new deal

“I never wanted to be anywhere else. There is unfinished business here.” Amr Hossam commits to Wadi Degla for another 1 years.

Squad10 Aug 2026

Words exchanged at Wadi Degla

Franck Boli and a teammate said things this week that will take longer than a week to unsay. It was not about football, and both of them play on Saturday.

Transfer targets10 Aug 2026

Wadi Degla bid $12.0K for Abdelrahman Mano

The offer went to Al Ahly this week and it is theirs to answer. First bids are rarely meant to succeed; they are meant to find out how loud the door closes.

The dugout10 Aug 2026

No hiding place for Franck Boli

“I pick players who do the work. All of it.” No name was spoken; every camera still turned to Franck Boli, and the manager let it.

Market10 Aug 2026

Eyes on Ahmed Abdin again

The phone has started ringing about Ahmed Abdin again, and this time the name on the line is Zamalek. Wadi Degla are listening politely and promising nothing.

Market10 Aug 2026

Karim Mohsen steps up from the Wadi Degla academy

There is no fee, no unveiling and no agent on the steps. Karim Mohsen has been at this club since he was a boy and is now, formally, one of the first-team squad — which for a local readership beats any signing of any size.

Market10 Aug 2026

One of our own: Amr El Nenny joins the Wadi Degla first team

Clubs spend fortunes looking for players and occasionally find one down the corridor. Amr El Nenny is that, and the reception he gets on his first appearance will be different in kind from the one any signing receives.

Squad3 Aug 2026

Mees Kaandorp stays put

“The easiest signature of my career.” Mees Kaandorp and Wadi Degla agree another 4 years, and the manager can plan around him rather than about him.

Squad3 Aug 2026

A falling-out at Wadi Degla

Franck Boli and a teammate went at it, and not about football. Training grounds are small places and a long season makes them smaller.

Market3 Aug 2026

Wadi Degla and Franck Boli are talking past each other

“There is a gap, and pretending there is not helps nobody.” Neither side has moved, and the calendar is working for exactly one of them.

Market3 Aug 2026

The clock runs on Mahmoud Diasty's contract

49 months left and silence from upstairs — no offer, no talks, nothing for his people to answer. Clubs that let a calendar do their negotiating usually end up negotiating with the calendar.

Squad3 Aug 2026

A row about effort at Wadi Degla

Somebody said out loud what several people thought about how hard another man trains, and Ali Hussein was in the middle of it. The one dressing-room argument that is genuinely about football.

Transfer targets3 Aug 2026

A loan move for Morgan Manyama is in the works

Wadi Degla have made the call to SuperSport United. No fee, a share of the wages, and a spare shirt in the position where the squad has been thinnest all season.
