Schubert expresses surprise over Zizou’s contract with Al-Ahly

Sports journalist Ahmed Shubert revealed a big surprise regarding the transfer deal of Ahmed Sayed “Zizou” to Al-Ahly, who signed a free transfer deal from Zamalek after the end of his contract with White Castle.

Zizou’s move to Al-Ahly had sparked widespread controversy in Egyptian sporting circles, especially after reports that the player had received a huge salary, causing controversy in the red team’s dressing room and prompting some players to demand a renegotiation and improvement of their contracts.

“The value of Zizou’s contract with Al-Ahly is completely out of line with all the figures circulating and it is not £170m or £150m as some are saying.”

“The signing of Zizou has brought Al-Ahly club very huge advertising contracts, to the extent that the club managed to cover the cost of the deal for two full seasons and even made a profit, and I take full responsibility for this statement.”

Schubert explained that Al-Ahly did not carry as big a financial burden as some have imagined, noting that the player joined the team for free after his contract with Zamalek expired.

He continued. “Al-Ahly did not pay huge sums as many people think, especially as the deal was made without a transfer fee. There are players who have a lot of marketing and advertising value, and Zizo is one of those players.”

He noted that revenues from advertisements, television programs and commercial rights associated with the player’s name contributed significantly to covering most of the costs under his contract.
