A former Al Ahly star has called for the Egyptian giants to sack head coach Jose Riveiro after the team's slow start to the Egyptian Premier League campaign.
The Club of the Century have started their league campaign with one win and two draws, but they take on African champions Pyramids FC on Saturday evening.

Former Al Ahly star Ahmed Abu Muslim has not been impressed with the former Orlando Pirates tactician.
"There's no doubt everyone expected a much stronger start and to win every game after the deals Al Ahly made to bolster its ranks, but the truth is the management didn't choose the right coach, something I've been saying since announcing Riveiro's announcement," Riveiro told Kooora.
"In my opinion, Ribeiro is not the right coach for Al-Ahly, and his continued presence in his position is a waste of time. I demand his immediate departure.
"Football is different in South Africa. Orlando City doesn't have the same fan pressure as Al Ahly.
"The aesthetics of football there are more important than winning titles. Orlando City has reached the CAF Champions League final at most twice throughout its history, while Al Ahly is required to qualify for the final and win every edition."
