And he continued: "I made a decision to renew for Hossam Hassan before the Argentina match, every contract has secret clauses in the contract, and a meeting will be held with him to agree on them".
And he added: "Hossam Hassan raising the Palestinian flag at the World Cup was an automatic move, I don't think there is anything, (may God protect)".
And Abu Rida concluded his speech: "Mahmoud El-Khatib, President of Al-Ahly Club, is a lifelong friendship of 50 years, football is one thing and the personal relationship is another, and the crisis of the Wydad Moroccan match in the 2022 African Champions League final did not affect it".
