Marked for Ziad Ayoub

Market16 Nov 2026

Marwan Ateya asks to leave Al Ahly

“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.

Squad16 Nov 2026

Words exchanged at Al Ahly

Mohamed Hany 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.

Squad16 Nov 2026

Words at Al Ahly training over how hard people work

Somebody said out loud what several people had been thinking. Yasser Ibrahim 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.

The dugout16 Nov 2026

Ziad Ayoub gets it from the manager

“Nobody here is above being told.” It was not said with a name attached, but the dressing room can count, and so can everybody who was listening.

Loan watch16 Nov 2026

The goals keep arriving from Afsha’s exile

7 goals in 11 games at Ittihad — numbers that travel home faster than he does. Somebody at Al Ahly updates a spreadsheet every Monday, and it makes better reading each week.

Looking ahead16 Nov 2026

Mohamed El Shenawy goes back to face Petrojet

Every squad has one of these fixtures for somebody every season. This one is Mohamed El Shenawy’s: the club that knew him first, the supporters who will decide in the first minute whether to applaud, and Al Ahly needing him to play as if none of it matters.

Market16 Nov 2026

The Oston O'runov story refuses to die

It has been denied twice and printed three times, which is the usual arithmetic. Until Oston O'runov signs something — a contract at Al Ahly or anywhere else — this column belongs to him.

Squad16 Nov 2026

A wage question at Al Ahly

Yasser Ibrahim has done the arithmetic and does not like the answer. Nothing corrodes a squad faster, and no club has ever solved it by explaining the wage structure to a footballer.

The dugout16 Nov 2026

Soufiane Benjdida asks for a word with the manager

“I would rather say it to his face than read about it.” The meeting was requested by the player, which tells you most of what you need to know.

Player ratings17 Aug 2026

Ziad Ayoub could not have asked for more on his first appearance — 7.84

Debuts are survived rather than enjoyed. This one was enjoyed: 7.84, 1 goals, and a manager already being asked whether he starts again next week.

Market17 Aug 2026

Hady Reyad agrees terms with Military Production

The clubs have settled the fee and he has settled his wages. What remains is a medical and a photograph, and around Al Ahly people have started saying his name in the past tense.

Market17 Aug 2026

Al Ahly say no — this time

The offer from CFR Cluj for Mohamed Ali Ben Romdhane was heard out and sent back the same day. First bids are rarely meant to succeed; they are meant to find out how loudly the door closes.

Market17 Aug 2026

Mohamed Zaalouk turns Paradou down

“It was not right for me. I am not going to explain why to anybody except the people I owe an explanation to.” A deal agreed between two clubs, and a player who declined to be part of it.

Player ratings17 Aug 2026

Up for the corner, and Marwan Ateya delivers — 7.85

Centre-halves are allowed forward twice a season and are judged on what they do when they get there. Marwan Ateya scored, was marked 7.85, and got back before anybody noticed he had gone.

Boardroom17 Aug 2026

Graduation day at Al Ahly

2 boys move up, and somewhere in the building the people who coached them at twelve are quietly having the best morning of their working year. Nothing about this shows up in a result and it is why the academy exists.

Match15 Aug 2026

Ziad Ayoub sends Al Ahly past El Dakhleya

It finished 3‑1, and it was Ziad Ayoub’s afternoon: on the scoresheet when it mattered, and the reason the points belong to Al Ahly.

Squad17 Aug 2026

A falling-out at Al Ahly

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

The terraces17 Aug 2026

The crowd has taken to Ziad Ayoub

At 18 he is being sung about by people twice his age, which is an affection a signing has to earn over years and a local kid gets for turning up. It is also the hardest thing in football to live up to.
