Ismaili coach Ricardo Ferreira, whose future at the coastal side is doubtful, has received two offers from Lybia and Saudi Arabia's Ahli, according to a reliable source. The former Hilal tactician was installed as the Dervishes boss this term, and his contract runs out in a couple of seasons. "Ricardo received an offer to take charge of the Libyan national side. Ahli Jeddah are also interested in appointing him," the source, who spoke on condition of anonymity, told FilGoal.com. According to Ismaili chairman Nasr Aboul-Hassan, Ricardo will sit down with some board members by the end of the season to decide whether or not he will see his contract through. "The team are in a crucial period, especially they are in contention for the league title," said Aboul-Hassan. "There will be a meeting at the end of the season to decide on his (Ricardo's) future." When asked about the Brazilian coach's suitors, the president said: "This allegation is groundless. He didn't receive any offers. "We need to focus on our upcoming games. we won't distract ourselves by speculations over the head coach's next move." Beforehand, several board members expressed their desire to relieve Ricardo of his duties at the end of the season, after Ismaili were ousted from the Arab Champions League.
