Market31 Aug 2026

Masr El Makasa break the bank for El Sayed Abo Amna

$140.0K. No player has ever cost Masr El Makasa more, and expectation arrives with him.

Market31 Aug 2026

Mohamed El Mohamady asks to leave Masr El Makasa

“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.

Bassem Hamdi runs at them all day

Successful dribbles: 28. There is a particular sort of despair on a full-back's face by the seventieth minute, and it was on display.

Market31 Aug 2026

Ali Mohsen has one foot out of the door

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

Market31 Aug 2026

Masr El Makasa say no — this time

The offer from Afrique Foot Elite for Ibrahim Gabr 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.

Squad31 Aug 2026

Tempers go at Masr El Makasa

Ali Zaki 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.

$140.0K for El Sayed Abo Amna, and Masr El Makasa supporters approve

Boards get told what they have done wrong for years and hear nothing on the days they get it right. This is one of those days: El Sayed Abo Amna from Arab Contractors for $140.0K, and a ticket office having a very good morning.

Emad Hegazi 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.

Match29 Aug 2026

Masr El Makasa share the spoils with El Dakhleya

A 1‑1 draw with El Dakhleya leaves the dressing room somewhere between relief and regret.

From our football correspondent Crisis

Market24 Aug 2026

Bassem Hamdi 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 Masr El Makasa can pretend not to have heard.

Market24 Aug 2026

Masr El Makasa say no — this time

The offer from Al Ahly for Ali Zaki 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.

Player ratings24 Aug 2026

Both of them Ali Zaki's — 8.11

2 goals, and the second was the one that settled it. Marked 8.11, and he could have had a third with better luck at the near post.

Squad24 Aug 2026

A one-man rearguard from Hossam Tarek

There were 6 saves in it, and at least three that had no business being saves at all. The ten outfield players owe him a drink and they know it.

Match22 Aug 2026

Ali Zaki’s goal not enough for Masr El Makasa

Ali Zaki scored, and precious little else went right: 2‑3 to Al Ahly, and a quiet walk to the dressing room.

Squad24 Aug 2026

Words at Masr El Makasa training over how hard people work

Somebody said out loud what several people had been thinking. Emad Hegazi 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.

Squad24 Aug 2026

Emad Hegazi 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.

Market24 Aug 2026

Fathy Trezeguet attracts admirers

The name of Fathy Trezeguet has come up in conversations Masr El Makasa were not part of. Nothing formal, nothing signed — but nothing about it accidental either.

Squad24 Aug 2026

El Sayed Sobhi 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 Masr El Makasa this week that will take longer than a week to unsay.

From our football correspondent Steady

Market10 Aug 2026

Emad Hamdi 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 Masr El Makasa, and it is not being withdrawn.

Market10 Aug 2026

Masr El Makasa say no — this time

The offer from Aswan for Hossam Mohsen 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.

Squad10 Aug 2026

Bassem Hamdi pulls a muscle — 15 days out

The injury that keeps coming back, keeps being rushed back from, and quietly costs more careers than the dramatic ones. 15 days is the estimate; the honest figure depends on whether anybody is patient.

Squad10 Aug 2026

Ali Zaki stays put

“The easiest signature of my career.” Ali Zaki and Masr El Makasa agree another 2 years, and the manager can plan around him rather than about him.

Squad10 Aug 2026

Tempers go at Masr El Makasa

Ali Zaki 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.

Business is business: Bassem Hamdi goes

Petrojet paid $400.0K and Masr El Makasa took it, which is the whole story in one sentence. The longer version involves a wage budget and will be told all season.
