“There have been repeated rumors and false information in recent days regarding alleged negotiations between Marcel Koller & Al Ahly particularly concerning unpaid dues. I would like to clarify that this information isn't true. There have been no agreements or offers as stated. I urge the media to refrain from speculation and rely only on official statements"
