The sad development arose less than two hours after their 2-0 loss on the road at Kampala Capital City Authority (KCCA) football club in a group Champions league group A match played at Mandela National Stadium, Namboole.

The club website confirmed the development;

We accept the resignation of head coach Hossam El Badry. The club executive will convene on Wednesday to discuss a way forward.

Midfielder Ibrahim Sadam Juma and defender Timothy Denis Awany (penalty) scored for the Ugandan side in the 73rd and 88th minutes respectively.

In the aftermath of their 2-0 loss, Al Ahly remains with just a point from two matches.

Al Ahly played to a goal-less draw at home with Tunisian side Esperance.

A few weeks ago, Al Ahly lost 1-0 to Isaac Muleme’s Alassiouty Sport in the Egypt cup quarter finals.

Al Ahly has won the Egypt Premier League a massive 40 times, 6 CAF Super cup honours and has lifted the CAF Champions league 8 times.
