Former Zamalek defender Hossam Abdelmeguid has formally demanded 800,000 Egyptian pounds in unpaid wages, threatening complaints to the Egyptian federation and FIFA.
- Abdelmeguid, now with Bulgarian club Ludogorets, sent Zamalek a formal notice demanding 800,000 pounds in overdue dues from last season.
- His brother Islam said the family will file a complaint with the Egyptian Football Association and escalate to FIFA if no payment arrives within 30 days.
- Islam said the family contacted Zamalek after the Juan Bezzera transfer deal boosted club finances but received no response.
- A Zamalek club source refuted the claim, saying the amount was bonuses trimmed 10% per regulations and a 1.5 million-pound payment was made on September 23.
