Brazilian player Juan Bezerra’s situation has sparked major controversy inside Zamalek after TV and radio presenter Khaled El Ghandour revealed that members of the club’s board have accused former sporting director John Edward of playing a role in the player’s ongoing absence and delayed return to Cairo.

The situation has raised further questions about Bezerra’s future, particularly following reports linking him with a move to a club in the United Arab Emirates, despite Zamalek reportedly not granting him official permission to leave.

Accusations Against Edward

According to El Ghandour’s radio remarks, Zamalek’s board, headed by Hussein Labib, believes John Edward may have been involved in influencing Bezerra’s position and his continued absence from the team.

El Ghandour also said there are accusations that Edward encouraged the Brazilian player to take a tougher stance against the club, contributing to the crisis and preventing his return to training so far.

Bezerra’s Future Unclear

The situation has become even more complicated amid reports that Bezerra may have signed for a club in the UAE. Zamalek, however, maintains that it has not given the player permission to leave and has not approved any transfer to another club.

With accusations circulating within the club and uncertainty surrounding Bezerra’s next move, the Brazilian player’s future remains unclear. Zamalek will now be looking for a quick resolution, particularly as his continued absence from training creates another challenge for a team seeking greater stability.
