Brazilian star Juan Beizera, a player for Al-Zamalek Club, sparked widespread controversy in recent hours after following the account of Renato Boscaglioli, the physical trainer for Al-Ahly Club, on the social media platform "Instagram."
This comes amid the ongoing crisis between the player and Al-Zamalek Club, following his refusal to return to group training to participate in the new season's matches with the club.
First comment from Al-Ahly Club's physical trainer
Renato Boscaglioli, the physical trainer for Al-Ahly Club, commented on Beizera following him on his "Instagram" account, clarifying in a statement to "Yalla Kora" that the matter carries no special significance.
Boscaglioli said: "What a coincidence. We have some mutual friends in Brazil, so it is natural for him to follow me. That is all there is to it."
The Brazilian Boscaglioli works as part of the technical staff of Moroccan coach Hossam El Moutawakel, who took charge of Al-Ahly Club after the departure of Danish coach Jesper Sorensen at the end of last season.
The Al-Zamalek and Beizera crisis
Juan Beizera had previously issued a statement confirming his desire to leave Al-Zamalek, noting that he had received promises from the club to allow him to depart after the end of last season.
The player has several offers during the ongoing summer transfer window, the most notable of which is from UAE's Shabab Al-Ahli Dubai, while Al-Zamalek has announced its insistence on keeping the Brazilian player.
Al-Zamalek demanded that the player return and participate in group training, pointing out that it would impose several fines on him for failing to report to the team at the designated time, given the player's insistence on not returning.
