Marked for Ahmed Abbas

From our football correspondent Steady

Market14 Sep 2026

Islam Mohareb 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 Al Gaish can pretend not to have heard.

Market14 Sep 2026

Mohamed Shaaban has one foot out of the door

Terms are settled between the clubs and the rest is paperwork and a photograph. Around Al Gaish they have already started talking about him in the past tense.

Squad14 Sep 2026

Words exchanged at Al Gaish

Hesham Balaha 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.

Market14 Sep 2026

Ahmed Abbas’s move to Military Production falls through

The deal that would have taken Ahmed Abbas to Military Production has collapsed at the last stage, and he reports back to Al Gaish with a summer to forget and a season still to play. Nobody is saying which side walked away.

Transfer targets14 Sep 2026

Mamelodi Sundowns tell Al Gaish: Jody February is not for sale

The approach was made and the answer came back in a sentence. There is no number on the table because there was no number that would have been enough.

The dugout14 Sep 2026

The manager makes an example of Hesham Balaha

“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.

Match12 Sep 2026

Al Gaish see off Al Ahly

Three points for Al Gaish, 1‑0 the final word against Al Ahly in a contest settled by the finer margins.

Player ratings14 Sep 2026

Hesham Balaha runs at them all day

Successful dribbles: 17. There is a particular sort of despair on a full-back's face by the seventieth minute, and it was on display.

Squad14 Sep 2026

Words at Al Gaish training over how hard people work

Somebody said out loud what several people had been thinking. Camacho 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.

From our football correspondent Uneasy

Market7 Sep 2026

Ahmed Abbas has said yes to Military Production

The last thing about a transfer that is still about the player is his signature on his own terms, and it is there. Al Gaish have lost him in all but the paperwork.

Boardroom7 Sep 2026

Al Gaish close the window on a squad of their own making

14 in and 0 out, and no more changes for months. The manager has what he has, the supporters have their opinion of it, and the table will have the last word.

Market7 Sep 2026

Mohamed Shaaban puts it in writing

“This is not anger. I have thought about it for months, and nothing that has happened lately changed my mind.” The request is on a desk at Al Gaish, and it is not being withdrawn.

Squad7 Sep 2026

Tempers go at Al Gaish

Hesham Balaha was at the centre of it, and by the time it was pulled apart there were three or four others involved. Training grounds are small places and long seasons make them smaller.

Transfer targets7 Sep 2026

Al Ahly tell Al Gaish: Mohamed Zaalouk is not for sale

The approach was made and the answer came back in a sentence. There is no number on the table because there was no number that would have been enough.

Squad7 Sep 2026

Camacho falls out with a teammate over standards

The oldest argument in any dressing room and the only one that is genuinely about football: one man thinks another is not putting enough in. It is also the row a manager privately does not mind having happened.

Squad7 Sep 2026

Amro Tarek is no longer first choice

The manager has re-ordered his thinking and Amro Tarek has come out of it lower. He will be told it is temporary, and the players who have heard that before will avoid his eye.

The dugout7 Sep 2026

Hesham Balaha knocks on the manager's door

“It had gone on long enough. I would rather have it out than leave it sitting there.” Ten minutes behind a closed door at Al Gaish, and both men came out saying it was fine.

The dugout7 Sep 2026

Fares Hatem 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.
