The decision has been taken in the aftermath of Mohamed Abdul-Wahab's shocking death in Ahli's training ten days ago due to heart failure, an incident that stirred debates over the role of sports medicine in Egypt.

"This measure has been taken to be sure that all players are totally safe," EFA spokesman Medhat Shalabi told reporters.

A number of experts accused Ahli of negligence, recalling Abdul-Wahab's poor medical record.

The international defender was hit by two public comas during the Cairo derby and Egypt's game with Senegal last season.

Ahli deny any role.

"All contracts will include a life insurance term as well to provide more security for all players," Shalabi added.

Ahli announced that the fee of a three-year contract that Abdul-Wahab was due to sign will be paid to his family.

The EFA also decided to donate third of the revenues of Egypt's 4-1 victory over Burundi to the player's family.

The other thirds will be donated to the families of Rami Gomaa and Ahmed Wahid, both died in a car crash late in August.
