It seems that Ahmed Sayed Zizo is on his way to leave Zamalek this winter, after developments in the past hours between him and the White Club’s management made his chances of staying greatly diminish.
At the beginning of January, Zizo’s father announced that he had reached an agreement with Zamalek to renew, then the Saudi agreement offer appeared, then the stifling financial crisis in the club that has stopped everything so far.
According to Egyptian press reports, whether Zamalek or Zizo, the two parties have backed down from their previous agreement, and are looking for better terms to renew the contract.
On the player’s part in particular, he wants to earn 100 million pounds from the renewal immediately, and his father gets 25% of this value as a commission, which is a total amount that the club cannot meet.
On the club’s part, they offered Zizo to get part of his money in the form of a villa in the North Coast and a car that he cannot sell before 3 years, and the player also rejected the idea.
In any case, the most likely thing currently is for Zizo to leave Zamalek this winter, and the closest destination for him will not be the Saudi League as previously rumored.
So far, Zizo is in very advanced negotiations with the Qatari club Al-Shamal, and there is a near-agreement between the two parties on the terms of the contract, and the agreement with Zamalek remains on the value of buying the remaining six months of the player’s contract.
It is worth noting that Zizo, 29 years old, is the sixth top scorer in the history of Zamalek Club, knowing that he is playing only his sixth year with the White Castle.
