Al Ahly transfer advisor Adly El-Keiy has insisted the club’s board will meet with Pitso Mosimane just to support not to evaluate him.
Despite his achievements, Mosimane has been under scrutiny recently with former Al Ahly players urging the club board to replace the South African coach.
On the other hand, many other footballing personalities have come out in support of Mosimane, including Wadi Degla president Maged Samy, saying the coach is a scapegoat for Al Ahly ‘s board.
Mosimane is expected to have another meeting with Al Ahly’s board, led by Mahmoud El Khatib, on Saturday, which will decide his fate in Cairo.
Speaking on the meeting, El-Keiy said: “The club’s board has the right to discuss and review any official in its decisions.
Mosimane has proven competency, but the meeting isn’t to evaluate him, but to review some matters, which is the responsibility of the board.
”Public opinion is now divided between supporters and opponents of Mosimane; however, both sides must accept that it’s just mere views and that the board has the right to make the decision.
One of the simplest rules of justice is to give the official the freedom to make a decision and ultimately he is responsible for his decision.
”Al Ahly fans have not interfered in the club’s politics before, Saleh Selim took the fans into consideration for their happiness, but not to ask them what decisions he should make,” he added.
The club will hold a press conference at 12:00.
