A source denied reports of a meeting between Shawky Gharib, the technical director of the Egyptian Football Association, and Hossam Hassan, coach of the Egyptian national team.

Some reports had circulated in recent hours about a meeting between Shawky Gharib and Hossam and Ibrahim Hassan.

The source told Youm7: "There is no truth to the circulating news regarding a meeting between Shawky Gharib and Hossam and Ibrahim Hassan today."

The source clarified: "The Football Association did not task Shawky Gharib with evaluating the performance of the national team's technical staff, as rumored."

Shawky Gharib holds the position of Technical Director at the Football Association; his primary duties include overseeing the youth and junior national teams.

Hossam and Ibrahim Hassan are expected to meet with Hany Abo Rida, president of the Football Association, to discuss what happened during the Egyptian national team's last training camp.

Khaled El-Darndaly, vice-president of the Football Association, revealed some crises during the Egypt vs. South Sudan match in the second round of the Africa Cup of Nations qualifiers.

The Egyptian national team concluded its camp during the September and October break with a friendly loss to South Africa at Cairo Stadium on Sunday.

The Egyptian national team played three matches during the break, two in the 2027 Africa Cup of Nations qualifiers and one friendly.

In the first two qualifier matches, the Egyptian national team won one and drew one, collecting four points out of six available.
