Essam El-Hadary says the national team’s technical staff ‘lacks respect’ & ‘they don’t care about Egypt’ .
“Those people lack respect. They don’t respect Egypt, they don’t love Egypt,” he said in a phone interview on Al-Hayah TV.
“All their words are lies. I was ready to serve the team in any role but every member of the technical staff gives favorable treatment to three or four players whom he shares some interests with.
“There were players who used to cause many problems and attack the coaches, but now they are present in the national team,” he added.
“When anyone asks Diaa El-Sayed or Zaki Abdel-Fattah about me, they simply say the final decision lies in the hands of Mr. Bob Bradley,” added El-Hadary, who has earned 14 international caps since the American manager took charge of Egypt in late 2011.
“Who is Bradley to decide my fate? If this is the case, I will call it a day.”
The 40-year-old, who is arguably Egypt’s best-ever custodian, used to be the team’s undisputed number one but abruptly fell out of favour after rejecting a bench role during a friendly game against Chile last February.
