Pharaohs sign new coach
Published in The Egyptian Gazette on 01 - 08 - 2018

CAIRO, August 1, 2018 - The Egyptian Football Association (EFA) has contracted Mexican coach Javier Aguirre to lead Egypt's national team, EFA member Magdi Abdel-Ghani said on Wednesday.
Aguirre has agreed to a four-year contract that will see him earn a monthly salary of $120,000, Abdel-Ghany told reporters. This means the 65-year-old will be in charge of Egypt until the 2022 World Cup.
Aguirre succeeds Argentinean coach Hector Cuper, who departed in late June after Egypt failed to bag a single point following three World Cup defeats by Uruguay, hosts Russia and Saudi Arabia in Group A.
"I'm happy to sign a new contract with the Egyptian national team. I know Egypt's team well and I know (Liverpool forward) Mohamed Salah and (Arsenal midfielder) Mohamed Elneny," Aguirre was quoted by local media as telling reporters.
"I followed Egypt's World Cup games and I instantly accepted their offer. It's an important step in my career."
