Hassan
Unhappy As His European Career Coming to End
Date: 3-4-2008 Wrote by: EP's webmaster
Ahmed Hassan told the press that he is not pleaased
with his manager who introduced against Cercle Brugge
with only a couple of minutes left on the referee's
watch. Hassan considered that as an insult to his long
career in Europe.
Egyptian star Ahmed Hassan is preparing
to conclude his long footballing career in Europe. He
decided to join Al-Ahly at end of season and his days
at Anderlecht are counted.
It is clear that Hassan is not enjoying
playing for Anderlecht at the time being. This may be
attributed to the lack of understanding between him
and the coach Ariel Jacobs.
The current Anderlecht manager put Hassan
on the bench in the last league match versus Cercle
Brugge. He only gave the Egyptian the chance in the
88th minute and the Egyptian didn't appreciate his very
late introduction to the game.
Hassan told the press that such late introduction
in the game is an insult for his career as a big player
for the club.
It should be noted that the Egyptian is
under pressure since the ACN after his late arrival
as the press kept linking between his form and the club
inability to defend their title this season.
Hassan also lost his place in the starting line up, but he
managed to reply to his critics on the field as he helped
Anderlecht to win against Bayern Munich, Roesalere and Germinal.
It seems that Ariel Jacobs realized that Hassan
won't be in his plans for next season so he started not to
build his plans around the Egyptian.
It also worth mentioning that Hassan might not
be able to play in the upcoming match versus Westerlo because
of a minor injury. However, the Egyptian is expected to play
in the midweek fixture in the Belgian cup.
