CAIRO: Ittihad coach Taha Basri said his team will depend on a teamwork system because their squad doesn t boast stars.
The former ENPPI coach was responding to quotes attributed to him that he was afraid the available of several stars would cause him problems.
I never said that, because Ittihad don t have stars, Basri told FilGoal.com on Sunday.
The star in Egypt is the one who plays in the national team. Ittihad mainly depend on teamwork plays.
The Alexandria-based club signed a host of players in the close season as they aim to improve on last season s tenth-place finish in the Egyptian League.
Despite having a decent history in Egyptian football, Ittihad barely avoided relegation during the past few seasons.
