Al Ahly Stars Bury the Hatchet After Locker Room Dispute
Cairo, Egypt – Tensions have cooled at Egyptian soccer powerhouse Al Ahly after a heated locker room dispute between star forward Ashur El-Shenawi and team captain and goalkeeper Mohamed El-Shenawy.
A source within the club revealed to newsdirectory3.com that a planned reconciliation session was rendered needless after El-Shenawi extended an apology to his teammates and Swiss coach Marcel Koehler on Monday morning.
“Things are now back to normal,” the source confirmed,speaking on condition of anonymity.”Ashour has returned to team training after being disciplined with solo sessions in the past days.”
The source explained that while a formal reconciliation meeting had been scheduled under the guidance of Al AhlyS sporting director, Mohammed Ramadan, El-Shenawi’s proactive apology effectively resolved the conflict.
This news comes after reports emerged of El-Shenawi’s anger over being left out of the squad for Al Ahly’s recent African champions League match against Ivory Coast’s Abidjan Stadium. The forward’s frustration reportedly boiled over into an argument with el-Shenawy.
Renowned Egyptian sports critic Ashraf Abdel Nasser, writing for the newspaper Al-Fajr, confirmed that first-team players Amr El-Sulia and Mahmoud Abdel-Moneim (Kahraba) played a key role in mediating the situation.
“Ashour and El-Shenawi were seen training together alongside Kahraba on Monday morning,” Abdel Nasser noted. “They seemed eager to demonstrate their mended relationship to the fans watching the session.”
While the possibility of rescinding the severe penalty imposed on El-Shenawi – a one million Egyptian pound fine (approximately $22,000) and a week-long ban from group training – remains uncertain, Abdel Nasser believes a resolution could be reached in the coming days.
Ramadan initially issued the punishment following the locker room incident.
