Ramadan Sobhi said in televised statements to the “Al-Hekaya” program presented by the journalist Amr Adib: Amir Tawfiq is the first person to know about the Pyramids negotiations and he said to me: You will go … I told him I will think and see.
He added: The second day I spoke with Sherif Ikrami, my wife’s brother and my agent, and I told them I prayed Istikhara and decided to go Pyramids, after negotiations that lasted only 48 hours.
And he continued: As soon as the negotiations ended, I tried to communicate with Mahmoud al-Khatib, and he did not answer my call, so I spoke with Amir Tawfiq, and I told him that I am trying to communicate with Al-Khatib, but he does not respond, and there are two things I want to inform Captain Al-Khatib about, the first is that I did not sign and did not get any money yet, And that I had not negotiated with Pyramids for a while, and concluded: Al-Ahly published the statement and this day coincided with the opening of the stadium, and by God I did not know that it was the day of the opening, but things came like this.
