Zamalek president Mortada Mansour confirmed that Micho has been appointed as the Whites’ new coach.
Micho is expected to arrive on Sunday in Egypt to sign a contract with the Egyptian giants.
“Micho was our first choice. Tarek Yehia (current interim manager) will be his assistant, Ayman Abdelaziz will be appointed as team coordinator, and Amir Mortada will continue in his role as director of football,” Mansour was quoted by KingFut
Mansour had announced another Serbian coach Aleksandar Stanojevic as the new man at the helm but he says he only did that to fool the club’s enemies.
“Stanojević will not take charge of Zamalek. It was a trick to find out who the club’s enemies are and I revealed them in front of everyone,” Mansour explained after confirming that Micho will be in charge of the team from next week.
