Tharwat Sowilam on Zamalek’s participation in the Super Cup: “My words have been misinterpreted”
Tharwat Soueilm, a member of the Egyptian Clubs Association, responded to the statements he made regarding the possibility of the Zamalek team participating in the upcoming Super Cup tournament to be held in the Emirates.
Tharwat Soueilm had stated on “MBC Egypt” that it is possible for the Zamalek team to participate in the next edition of the Super Cup after the previous council was changed.
However, in a late-night interview on “Al-Nahar” today, he said, “My talk about the possibility of Zamalek’s participation was misinterpreted.” He added, “There has been no official or friendly dialogue about Zamalek’s participation in the next edition of the Super Cup.”
The previous edition of the Egyptian Super Cup saw the withdrawal of the Zamalek team, leading the Football Association to punish the White Castle and allow Pyramids to participate against Al Ahly.
The next edition of the Super Cup is scheduled to feature 4 teams: Al Ahly (league champion), Pyramids (league runner-up), Ceramica Cleopatra (elite cup champion), and Future (4th place in the league).
