From our football correspondent Steady

Boardroom

Aswan part company with Ahmed El Nenny

The statement thanked him for his efforts and wished him well, in that order and in about that many words. The search begins immediately.

The dugout

Ahmed El Shimi says Aswan went back on their word

“I was told what my role would be, and I signed on that basis. It has not happened.” A grievance with a date attached is the hardest kind to settle.

Boardroom

Trezeguet Sobhi minds the shop at Aswan

“I am not thinking past Saturday, and I would advise nobody else to.” The caretaker’s first rule is to pretend the job is small; Trezeguet Sobhi recited it perfectly.

Market

Olufemi Kayode has one foot out of the door

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

Squad

Words exchanged at Aswan

Raphael Ayagwa 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.

Boardroom

5 academy graduates step up at Aswan

Senior shirt numbers handed to boys the coaches have known since they were twelve. Most will not make it and all of them have already done the hard part.

Transfer targets

Zamalek tell Aswan: Akim Zedadka 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.

Squad

A row about effort at Aswan

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

Match

A bad afternoon for Aswan against ENPPI

0‑2 to ENPPI, and no complaints worth printing. The performance asked for nothing more than it got.

In brief
