Manuel Jose's future as Ahli coach will be decided in the upcoming few days, following a prolonged meeting on Monday. Ahli's official site stated that the Portuguese tactician discussed several issues, including the renewal of his contract, with the board. "A final decision regarding Jose's contract will be announced in the upcoming few days," said club coordinator Hadi Khashaba. The veteran coach, whose contract runs out this summer, is all the more likely to stay with Ahli as plans for next season were discussed during the meeting. Jose gave his views about players he is targeting in the summer, in addition to others to be promoted from the youth team. Misunderstood Ahli's playmaker Mohamed Abou-Treika has played down claims that his manager is leaving at the end of the season. FilGoal.com learnt earlier that Jose implied to his players after the recent Champions League win over Platinum Stars that he will be leaving at the end of this season. However, Abou-Treika said that the Portuguese did not mention that he is on his way out, and that 'people misunderstood his words'.
