Full interview with Manuel Jose on CBC Egypt
Portuguese boss sarcastically trudged in the studio where he was hosted, wearing a fake long beard and holding a crutch, before shaking hands with CBC presenter Isaad Younes, a famous Egyptian actress.
“It’s a big honour to be with you. Can you help me? I’m very tired. I know yoCBC presenter Isaad Younes, a famous Egyptian actress.ur name but my memory is not like before,” he told Younes before sitting slowly.
“The Ahly president will never forget me, do you know why? Because the name of Zamalek’s coach is Manuel Jesualdo Ferreira and the name of Ahly’s coach is Jose Peseiro. Then, both combined make it Manuel Jose.”
Jose was apparently referring to the comment Ahly chairman Mahmoud Taher made when the Red Devils’ hardcore supporters called for the Portuguese’s return following the sacking of Fathi Mabrouk after the end of last season.
Taher said that Ahly did not consider Jose for the job for a number of reasons, including his old age.
