when

Al-Marsad newspaper: Anmar Al-Haili, Chairman of the Board of Directors of Al-Ittihad Club, revealed the story of contracting with the player Hamdallah and communicating with him when he was in America in a deal that he considers the best in the club.

He said during an interview with the “SSC” channel: Every new administration that comes always likes to remove all the existing players, but we decided to keep the distinguished players in the Union.

Thank God’s deal

He added: I consider the Hamdallah deal to be one of the best deals that Al-Ittihad has made in the past period and even in future periods. Because he is a player with high potential and his love for the entity, the management and the players.

He continued: We were in a camp in Dubai in a friendly match, and while we were sitting in the stadium, Ahmed, Hamed, and I were sitting in the stadium, and we were talking that the team needed a first-class striker, so I said, “Why don’t we answer, Hamdallah?” But his salary was very high, and Al-Ittihad Club could not pay half of his salary during that period. Because the federation was still in the construction phase, with financial matters being addressed, and the club support program was being implemented to the letter.

Praise be to God and the Federation’s championships

He added: But we spoke to Hamdallah “Video Cole” while he was in America, and we told him that we want him with us, but financial matters are not good and we cannot pay the salaries at the same time. The financial rewards are fine, but the salaries are delayed, so he said to us, “I would like to play in the Al-Ittihad fan club… and be… Part of the group to return Al-Ittihad Club to championships.”

He continued: I told Hamdallah that the challenge he would face was to bring us the league, and he replied, “God willing, I will meet the challenge.”

He continued: Thank God, the transition was very easy and he agreed to all the terms of the union, and we saw that the union is difficult to break.
