Zamalek chairman Mamdouh Abbas insisted Egyptian Cup hero Amr Zaki will not leave unless the club find his replacement. The Egypt frontman, who led Zamalek to a priceless cup triumph after a three-season title drought, is a subject of interest from Premiership side Wigan Athletic. A Wigan representative has arrived in Cairo to engage in formal talks with Zamalek. Although it initially appeared Zamalek would accept Wigan's bid, Abbas has now affirmed that Zaki's departure is far from confirmed. "To lose someone like Zaki is not easy. We need to find his replacement before letting him leave," he told Modern Sport. "We have to sign a new striker before June 21st. Otherwise, it will be difficult for Zamalek to allow him depart. "All people saw what he did today, he was the one who brought to us the cup title," he added.
