"Serbian coach Slobodan Pavkovic 'Bob' asked to replace Oka with Ittihad coach Mohamed Ibrahim," Moseilhi told FilGoal.com on Sunday.

However Ittihad board are yet to decide whether they'll hire a replacement for Oka or will promote Ibrahim to be Bob's assistant.

Meanwhile the board confirmed that the club will receive the international card of both Nigerian players Daouda Ushata and Mohamed Younes before the League game against Asyut Petroleum.

The Alexandria club signed Nigerian striker Ushata on a 3-year-contract for $40 thousand a season following the departure of Tcherno Mansaray to Al-Taei of Saudi Arabia.
