According to reports from Al-Masry Al-Youm, a well-informed source at Zamalek has reported that Masandawana head coach Miguel Cardoso has been strongly linked with a move to Egyptian giants Zamalek.
The source said the White Castle board is currently exploring its options for coaches to take over at the club permanently, following Jose Peseiro's sacking in April.
"Zamalek officials are currently reviewing the CVs of several coaches, and the list has now been narrowed down to just three candidates," the source said.
Adding: "One of the agents has proposed Portuguese coach Miguel Cardoso, who is currently managing South African side Mamelodi Sundowns, to take over as Zamalek’s head coach next season."
The Egyptian side are expected to announce their new coach as early as next Monday.
"Zamalek are in the final stages of selecting the new head coach," the source said.
"It’s expected that John Edward, the club’s sporting director, along with the planning committee, will finalise the appointment within the coming days. There are expectations that the manager will be officially announced next Monday."
Cardoso has been with the Brazilians since December 2024, leading the club to Betway Premiership glory as well as the CAF Champions League final, which they narrowly lost against Pyramids FC, with interest intensifying on the continent.
