Kouki replaces interim coach Mimi Abdel-Razek, who led the team through the end of the season following the departure of fellow Tunisian Anis Boujelbene.
The 55-year-old spent last season with Algerian club ES Sétif, guiding them to a sixth-place finish in the domestic league.
Kouki began his coaching career in 2010 and has managed several clubs across the region, including Al Hilal (Sudan), Al Faisaly (Jordan), Ittihad Tripoli (Libya), as well as Tunisian sides CS Sfaxien, Club Africain and Stade Tunisien.
His only major title came with ES Sétif, winning the Algerian league in 2023.
Masry finished fourth in the Egyptian Premier League and will represent Egypt in next season’s CAF Confederation Cup alongside Zamalek.
