The Egyptian Football Association has dismissed national team head coach Hossam Hassan, citing a "negative impact" on the team's image, according to an Associated Press report on Saturday.
The decision comes after Hassan's tenure leading the Pharaohs, though specific details regarding the circumstances behind the federation's assessment were not immediately disclosed. Hassan, a former Egypt international striker and the country's all-time leading goalscorer, had been appointed to the role in 2024.
