Khaled Galal Poised for a Libyan Comeback with Al-Olympi

Latest developments

The Egyptian coach Khaled Galal is nearing a Libyan league return home.

Kooora has learned that Galal received a serious offer to lead the Libyan Olympi side in recent days.

Negotiations showed positive developments after Galal gave tentative approval to return to the Libyan league after his prior successful stint with Al Tahadi.

Only final touches remain before a formal announcement of the agreement with Galal, concerning overall contract terms and annual salary.

Galal has also received offers from Algeria and Qatar, but he prefers returning to the Libyan league for now.

What to watch next

He had been linked with a return to lead Zamalek after Ahmed Abdel-Raouf's dismissal, but the White Knights chose coach Moataz Gamal.

Gamal previously led Zamalek to the Egypt Cup and has steered several Egyptian clubs, including Farco.

Punchline 1: The contract is tighter than a net during a knockout—imagine the paperwork kneeling at the goal line.

Punchline 2: If negotiations were a sniper, this deal would be a direct hit on keeping Libyan football competitive.
