viagramof – Swiss coach Marcel Kohler, Al-Ahly’s coach, responded to fans calling him “Grandpa Kohler” and also spoke about what was said about him causing the departure of Sayed Abdel Hafeez from the position of director of football, and the reason for repeatedly excluding financial professional Aliou Dieng from participating.
With Al-Ahly, Kohler won the African Champions League title after defeating Esperance of Tunisia with a clean goal in the second leg of the final round, after the first leg between them ended in a goalless draw at Rades Stadium.
Speaking on MBC Egypt 2, Kohler said: “I know that Al-Ahly fans call me (Grandpa Kohler), but I do not like this word because it makes me feel old.”
Koller added: “I certainly did not ask for the departure of Sayed Abdel Hafeez, but the president of the Al-Ahly club informed me of the decision of his departure and the appointment of Khaled Bebo in his place. Of course, this was an administrative decision and I did not interfere in it.”
Regarding the absence of Malian Aliou Dieng from participating, Kohler pointed out: “The player underwent knee surgery recently, and this is the reason for his absence from the matches, and not because he is out of my account.”
The coach continued Al-Ahly“I rejected Mohamed Sharif’s departure and I wanted him to continue, but the player was insisting on leaving, so we agreed to his request.”

He continued: “When I mentioned that Kahraba was striker No. 3, it was due to the player’s injury and his new return from injury, the beginning of Wissam Abu Ali’s brilliance, and the improvement of Modeste’s performance. My statement only applied to that period and was not a generalization.”
