Nasr Aboul Hassan has been named new Ismaili chairman after winning the elections on Friday. Aboul Hassan, who collected 1120 votes, beat Raafat Abdul-Azim, Mohamed Rahil and Ashraf Al-Aasi. Former Ismaili striker Salah Abou-Greisha led the board membership votes, with five other members. Ismaili's presidential instability has hindered the club's success in recent years, which saw the club suffering financially.
