Police assistant coach Mohamed Ibrahim told FilGoal.com that the board decided to withdraw their offer for Gaafar after they failed to agree with Zamalek on a fee for the player.

Talaat Youssef’s men already secured the signatures of Hassan Mostafa from Ahli and Tamer Reyad from Shams during the current transfer window.

Mohamed Naguib was also bought from Baldeya, as well as Mahmoud Abdul-Rahman and Nigerian striker Minusu Buba, who were brought from Menya and ENPPI respectively.

Ibrahim added that his team concluded their Bourg Al-Arab training camp, which was held in preparations for the league’s second term games.
