Mark Clattenburg has left his job as the head of Egypt's refereeing committee over safety concerns, after reportedly receiving threats from a set of supporters and personal attacks by the same club's president.
The former Premier League referee took up the role last August, where he was tasked with boosting the performance of officials in Egypt.
But Clattenburg has been heavily criticised by Mortada Mansour, the president of Zamalek Sporting Club, the 14-time record winners of the Egyptian Premier League.
