The Dervishes held a press conference in the club’s headquarters on Thursday to announce the new technical staff list headed by El Gamal.

“The new coach will lead the team’s training on Thursday within reparations for the game against Future FC in the 20th matchday of the Egyptian Premier League on 3 March.

The 52-year-old El Gamal led Ismaily two times in November 2021 as a caretaker coach before leading the team from May 2022 until August of the same year.

Mido claimed only victory in 9 appearances with the Dervishes since replacing Spaniard coach Juan Carlos Garrido as Ismaily's coach last December.

Ismaily are suffering in the relegation area of the Egyptian Premier League as they are 17th in the table with 14 points.
