CAIRO: Hungarian Bertalan Bicskei was named new head coach of Masri, the Port-Said club said on Wednesday.
The 65-year-old signed a one-and-a-half contract with the coastal club, where he had two spells before in 1994 and 2003. He will earn a monthly salary of $10,000.
Bicskei will lead Masri against league leaders Ahly on Saturday, before facing Zamalek four days later in Port-Said.
The veteran manager had previous experiences in Hungary, South Korea and Saudi Arabia at club level. He also managed the Hungarian national team for a while.
However, Bicskei s coaching career highlight was leading his nation to winning the 1994 European Youth Championship in Moscow.
