Al Habtoor denies plans to buy Zamalek.

The reports went beyond a possible purchase, bringing along claims about sums and agreements; Al Habtoor says those have nothing to do with the truth. He says he made no offer, held no negotiations and has no plans to buy Zamalek or invest in its football company. He draws a line between supporting Egyptian sport and investing in or managing clubs. He says he respects Zamalek and its fans and cares about supporting Egyptian sport and young people, but has no investments in the field and doesn’t claim to have the expertise needed to manage and develop clubs.
