Al-Ahly club officials have decided to keep Emad El-Nahhas as the team's interim technical director for the upcoming match against Pharco on February 28, as they approach the ninth and final round of the Egyptian Premier League this season.
Even though Al-Ahly has reached an agreement with Spanish coach Jose Rivero to take over for the next two seasons, starting after this season concludes, the management has chosen to maintain El-Nahhas in his role. This decision comes in light of the team's strong performance under his guidance, which has bolstered Al-Ahly's chances of contending for the league title.
The management's decision to extend El-Nahhas's tenure underscores their commitment to sustaining the team's stability and focus, as well as avoiding any potential distractions from new players. Rivero will officially take charge after the season wraps up.
