what happened
Ahmed Schubert had mentioned through his program on Ontime Sports that the 2010 African Cup of Nations was missing, and that Ahmed Hassan was the former captain of the Egyptian national team.
Walid Al-Attar, Executive Director of the Football Association, told FilGoal.com: “The five-year committee recently started a comprehensive renovation process at the entrance to the federation to make it in the form of a huge museum that includes cups, gifts and titles that the federation has acquired throughout its history, before the celebration of the 100th anniversary of the founding of the federation.”
And he continued, “After an inventory of the stores to put the cups, he was surprised that there were not a huge number of cups, medals, swords and shields, and their place of disappearance was not fixed, and they disappeared in earlier times and for a long time and no one knows their location.”
He added, “There is nothing in the Federation’s stores except the original 1986 Cup of Nations and two non-original copies of the 2006 and 2008 African Cups, and there is nothing else in the Federation with the disappearance of a number of shields and gifts.”
During the month of March 2013, a fire broke out in the Egyptian Football Association and it was said that 3 cups were stolen from the Federation, along with documents and other possessions.
Three years later, in June 2016, FIFA officials found the contract of the former sponsoring company headed by Amr Afifi, after three years of disappearance since the fire. How about cups?
Hamada Al-Masry, a former board member of the Football Association, who was present at the time of the fire and the disappearance of the cups, was stated toFilGoal.com, saying: “When the Al-Ittihad building was burned and the cups disappeared, I contacted a person named Youssef Othman, a member of the board of directors of the Suez national team, and at the same time he was a member of the fans’ association for the Egypt national team registered with the Football Association, and I told him that there are some things that have disappeared from the Federation We want the ball. “
And he continued, “Youssef Othman succeeded in recovering these 3 cups and returned them to Hamada Al-Masry.”“
He continued, “I handed it over to Tharwat Sweilem, the former executive director of the Football Association“.
How did the five-year committee act after discovering the disappearance of the holdings and the 2010 edition that was kept by Egypt forever?
Walid Al-Attar responds to FilGoal.com, saying: “An investigation has been opened with the departments of stores and accounts, to find out the fate of these cups and shields, as it has been proven that there was stealing in earlier times, but it is not proven what was stolen and what was returned with official papers.”
And he continued, “The Five-Year Committee seeks to reach the realization of what was stolen and to count those stolen items in order to communicate with the security to bring them back again, especially as they represent a huge historical value for the Egyptian Football and Football Association.”
What about the 2010 version?
A source in the Football Association told FilGoal.com: “It is proven that there is one of the cups with Ahmed Hassan, the leader of the Pharaohs, but without official papers within the federation, with his confirmation of the return of the copy some time ago for Tharwat Suwailem and Azmi Mujahid.”
He continued, “We are currently communicating with them to find out the location of the 2010 edition of the Nations Cup.”
He continued, “There is a previous board of directors’ report confirming the theft of collectibles and cups in the Union fire, but it is not proven what those stolen were, and therefore we are trying to reach to limit them and deal with the matter professionally.”
