Zamalek Sporting Club have announced that head coach Christian Gross will leave the club immediately, after taking the decision not to renew his current contract.
Gross’ departure comes less than a week since leading the Egyptian giants to their first ever Caf Confederation Cup title.
In the final Zamalek defeated Morocco's Renaissance Berkane on penalties, consequently ending their 16-year drought without a continental title.
As reported by the BBC after the White Knights’ draw against Al Intag Al Harbi, club chairman Mortada Mansour placed Khaled Galal in charge for the remainder of the campaign.
