Ahly said they will make their position clear on Weiler’s future on Thursday but the Swiss looks to have already made up his mind that it’s time to bid farewell, even though an African Champions League semi-final is looming.

The 47-year-old reportedly plans to take advantage of a clause in his contract that allows him to leave without paying any penalties in the first 10 days of October. Weiler’s new deal, which he signed in June, runs until the summer of 2021.

Media reports has been circulating saying that Mohamed Youssef will be hired as a temporary head coach for the Red devils’ football team if Weiler leaves, with Adel Mustafa as a general coach.

Youssef wrote through his official accounts on social networks:”I am the son of Al Ahly, whenever it needs me, I will be up to the responsibility. I have seen the recent statements about the departure of Al Ahly coach René Weiler and me being nominated to take over responsibility instead of him.”

He added: “It is true that training Al Ahly is a dream, for it is pride in itself, however, however, I was amazed at the huge number of statements and their strong spread in most of the social media pages.”

He continued: “I cannot comment or say except that nothing of what is said was officially done.”

He then concluded: “I am at the service of Al Ahly club wherever it needs my services, like a soldier in the service of his country, and I promise you that I will be up to the responsibility, with the grace of God, your support, and my eagerness to make you happy.”
