Retired midfielder Ahmed Hassan said he won’t play against Ahly in the Egypt Cup semis today when he makes his coaching debut at the helm of Petrojet.

Player-manager Hassan, a former Egypt skipper whose decorated career saw him win four African Cup of Nations titles with the Pharaohs, stunned observers when he said he could effectively come out of retirement while guiding Egyptian Premier League club Petrojet.

“I want to focus on my role as a manager during the match against Ahly. The playing thing will come later,” Hassan, who originally announced his retirement in December 2013 after ending an unsuccessful stint with Ahly’s arch-rivals Zamalek, told a news conference on Tuesday.

“My primary target now is to win the Egypt Cup and I believe my team boast the players who can do that,” he added.
