CAIRO: Zamalek trio Hani Saied, Mahmoud Fathallah and Hassan Mostafa reflected the squad’s cool reaction to the recent unrest concerning the club’s board.
The Zamalek board, led by Mamdouh Abbas, is set to be sacked after former chairman Mortada Mansour won his appeal against the legitimacy of the club’s previous elections.
However, the White Knights, who are already struggling with form, seem to be unfazed by the dramatic events.
"Zamalek’s status as a big club should be superior over any events regarding the board. We should be stable under any circumstances," Egypt sweeper Saied told FilGoal.com.
Saied’s defense mate Fathallah agreed saying: "I won’t pay much attention to what’s happening. I have a contract with Zamalek, not with a specific board."
In the same manner, midfielder Mostafa relished the troops ahead of the Whites’ next fixture against Smouha.
"The most important issue for us is the fans. Our main objective is to make them happy by getting back to winning ways," said the Egypt international.
"This will only be achieved by hard work and focus, not by talking about what’s happening off the pitch."
Zamalek are currently in ninth place of the Egyptian Premier League table, having dropped seven points from their first four games.
