Ahmed Suleiman, a member of Zamalek's management council, has announced his rejection of holding a general assembly to discuss the establishment of a football company within the club. This decision comes as the club is set to open voting for the creation of the football company on Tuesday. Suleiman had previously expressed his stance on the matter, emphasizing that he does not oppose the establishment of a football company but has certain conditions.

Suleiman outlined his conditions for the establishment of the football company, which include maintaining a controlling stake for the club, evaluating the company's value through a specialized entity, and discussing the payment terms for the investor's share. He also suggested that the general assembly should take place on a Friday or over two days, Friday and Saturday, to allow members to participate and express their opinions. Furthermore, he proposed voting through ballot boxes or exploring the possibility of electronic voting to ensure transparency.

The proposed football company has been a topic of discussion within Zamalek, with some members expressing concerns over the investor's stake and the club's control. According to FilGoal.com, the general assembly will consider the establishment of the football company, with the investor's stake expected to be higher than the club's. Suleiman's rejection of the current general assembly plans has been recorded in the council's minutes, and he has informed the club members and fans of his position.

Zamalek has not yet reached a final agreement on the establishment of the football company due to disagreements over certain terms, including the investor's stake and the club's control. The club's management council had previously decided to propose the establishment of the football company to the general assembly. Suleiman's conditions aim to ensure that the club's interests are protected and that the decision is made with transparency.

The Egyptian Ministry of Sports has stated that the law allows for the sale of the controlling stake to the football company investor. This statement comes amidst the ongoing discussions within Zamalek regarding the establishment of the football company. The club's members and fans are eagerly awaiting the general assembly to make a decision on this matter.

Suleiman's announcement has sparked a reaction among Zamalek's members and fans, with many awaiting the general assembly to express their opinions on the matter. The club's management council is expected to continue discussions on the establishment of the football company, taking into account Suleiman's conditions and the concerns of other members.

The outcome of the general assembly will have a significant impact on Zamalek's future, as it will determine the course of the club's football operations. The club's members and fans are hopeful that a decision will be made that benefits the club and its stakeholders.
