Squad24 Aug 2026

A one-man rearguard from Emad El Sayed

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.

Market24 Aug 2026

Ahmed Zola 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 The request is on a desk at Al Gaish, and it is not being withdrawn.

Transfer targets24 Aug 2026

Ítalo due for a Al Gaish medical

Everything agreed with Chapecoense, everything agreed with the player; a doctor is the only person left to persuade. The photograph is a day or two away.

Transfer targets24 Aug 2026

Zé Lucas will not be coming to Al Gaish

Terms were offered and declined. Whether it was the wages, the role or the town, nobody at Cruzeiro is saying, and nobody at Al Gaish is enjoying the guessing.

Squad24 Aug 2026

A falling-out at Al Gaish

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

Squad24 Aug 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.

Transfer targets24 Aug 2026

Al Gaish rebuffed over Rodriguinho

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

Transfer targets24 Aug 2026

A loan move for Zé Lucas is in the works

Al Gaish have made the call to Cruzeiro. No fee, a share of the wages, and a spare shirt in the position where the squad has been thinnest all season.

The dugout24 Aug 2026

Half-satisfied: Mostafa Kahraba on the draw

“There are things I liked and things we will be doing on Tuesday until they are right.” 0‑0, and a manager who had already decided what Tuesday looked like.

Transfer targets17 Aug 2026

Miguel Terceros due for a Al Gaish medical

Everything agreed with Santos, everything agreed with the player; a doctor is the only person left to persuade. The photograph is a day or two away.

Squad17 Aug 2026

Words exchanged at Al Gaish

Karim Tarek 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.

Squad17 Aug 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.

Transfer targets17 Aug 2026

Coritiba tell Al Gaish: Tiago Cóser 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.

Match15 Aug 2026

Al Gaish come up short against Ghazl El Mahalla

Ghazl El Mahalla left with the points after a 0‑1 defeat that will take some explaining on the terraces.

The dugout17 Aug 2026

Mostafa Kahraba faces the questions

“We were not good enough today and I am not going to dress it up.” Mostafa Kahraba after 0‑1, in the tone of a man who knows the next question and does not intend to answer it.

Transfer targets17 Aug 2026

Al Gaish try to borrow Zé Lucas

Cruzeiro have been asked whether they would lend him. Loans are agreed quickly or not at all, and this one will be one or the other by the weekend.

Market17 Aug 2026

Al Gaish and Ebuka Okeke 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.

Boardroom17 Aug 2026

Al Gaish turn down the training-ground plan

It is the quietest way a club tells you what its ambitions are. The money was asked for, the money was refused, and the people who work there every day now know exactly where they stand.

Transfer targets10 Aug 2026

Al Ahly tell Al Gaish: Achraf Bencharki 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.

Squad10 Aug 2026

Amro Tarek signs on for more

“Some decisions take a long time. This one took ten minutes, and most of that was finding a pen.” Amro Tarek and Al Gaish agree another 1 years.

Squad10 Aug 2026

Karim Tarek 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 Al Gaish this week that will take longer than a week to unsay.

Squad10 Aug 2026

Words at Al Gaish training over how hard people work

Somebody said out loud what several people had been thinking. Ismaïl Ouro-Agoro 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.

Market10 Aug 2026

Al Gaish promote Bassem Soliman from within

The academy exists for exactly this morning. Bassem Soliman has come through every age group the club runs and has now been handed a senior number, and the people who coached him at twelve will be the proudest in the building.

Market10 Aug 2026

Mohamed El Hadary steps up from the Al Gaish academy

There is no fee, no unveiling and no agent on the steps. Mohamed El Hadary 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: El Sayed Warda joins the Al Gaish first team

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

Market10 Aug 2026

Al Gaish promote Ashraf Mohsen from within

The academy exists for exactly this morning. Ashraf Mohsen has come through every age group the club runs and has now been handed a senior number, and the people who coached him at twelve will be the proudest in the building.

The dugout10 Aug 2026

Houssem Eddine Souissi 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.

Squad3 Aug 2026

A career in one shirt: Khaled Sotohi

8 seasons and 267 appearances, all of them here. Careers like this are not designed; they happen to a certain kind of man at a certain kind of club, and this town has one.

Market3 Aug 2026

Aswan come back empty-handed

The bid was some way short and Al Gaish did not need long over it. Nobody in the game reads a first refusal as the end of anything.

Squad3 Aug 2026

Camacho signs a new deal

“I never wanted to be anywhere else. There is unfinished business here.” Camacho commits to Al Gaish for another 2 years.

Squad3 Aug 2026

Tempers go at Al Gaish

Emad El Sayed 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.

Squad3 Aug 2026

A row about effort at Al Gaish

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

Transfer targets3 Aug 2026

Al Gaish rebuffed over Alan Minda

Not now, not at any price the club was prepared to say out loud. Atlético Mineiro have kept their man, and Al Gaish go back to a list with one name crossed off it.
