Zamalek News:

Zamalek have finalised a one-season loan deal for Wadi Degla striker Stanley Ohawuchi, the club confirmed early on Tuesday.
“Officially, Zamalek contracted Nigerian striker Stanley Ohawuchi for one season in loan terms from Wadi Degla club,” reads a statement on Zamalek’s official Facebook page that has around 5.4 million fans.

Zamalek chairman Mortada Mansour has revealed that Belgian tactician Georges Leekens is favoured for the vacant post of team manager following the departure of Mohamed Helmi.
“We are close to hiring Leekens. He is expected to bring a fellow countryman with him as assistant,” Mansour told reporters on Thursday.

Coach Helmi, the sixth man to take charge of Zamalek this season, resigned late on Wednesday following a second straight defeat to South African giants Mamelodi Sundowns in the African Champions League.

The Whites are second in the group with three points and need one more point in their last game against Enyimba at home to seal their qualification for the semi-finals.

The board has been weighting their options in looking for an experienced foreign coach to bring the team back on the right track after losing the league title to arch-rivals Ahly.
