Notes[]

  1. ^ Prior to his resignation, Carteron claimed that his decision was due to personal reasons; however, the sudden resignation was both surprising and shocking to Zamalek's board and fans, a few days after a 1–0 win over El Entag El Harby, since the club had only one month before their semi-final matches against Raja Casablanca in the 2019–20 CAF Champions League;[14] hence, the club's president Mortada Mansour offered him either to improve his contract to match the counter offer, or to stay until Zamalek complete the CAF Champions League campaign. Eventually, Carteron mentioned that his decision to leave was already taken, and that Zamalek still have time to prepare for their upcoming matches, then he would pay the release clause immediately.[15] Later on, Mortada Mansour accused Carteron of lying regarding that he had not an offer already, and that Al-Taawoun's president, Muhammad Al-Qasim, was trying to sabotage Zamalek.[16]
