My son shocked me out of the national team camp to “Coffee Shop”

Adel Mohamed, the father of the national team player and Al -Ahly youth football, Sultan Adel, said that the punishment taken by the Disciplinary Committee of the Football Association against his son, and the right of his teammate and Sharjah Club, Khaled Al -Dhanhani, was due, so that he would be an example for other players, as he put it.

The father of Sultan Adel told the sports line program on the “Sharjah Sports” channel: “My son shocked me, because he made a mistake from leaving the team headquarters and going to (Coffee Shop) after the national team match”, which was against Uzbekistan, in the penultimate round of the qualifiers for the 2026 World Cup, and ended with a negative tie that led to the loss of the opportunity to qualify Al -Abyad directly, and move to the stage of the attachment.

He explained: “If I were the place of the Football Association, I would not take the same punishment against Sultan, as it came out of the camp at a very difficult time, because the team is on a national mission.” He pointed out that “perhaps the injury that he was previously suffered made it underestimated or underestimated .. This does not satisfy me and does not satisfy the fans of the Emirates football.”

He added: “The punishment against my son Sultan was due to be a lesson to other players, and I apologize to the Emirates Football Association, headed by Sheikh Hamdan bin Mubarak Al Nahyan, and to the Emirati football fans for the Badr of my son Sultan.”

Adel Mohamed described the decision of Al -Ahly and Sharjah youth clubs to make deterrent decisions against both Sultan Adel and Khaled Al -Dhanhani, during an official statement issued by the two clubs, as the right decision.

The Disciplinary Committee of the Football Association had decided to stop both Sultan Adel and Khaled Al -Dhanhani, five games, each of them fined 500 thousand dirhams, and excluded them from the team’s list, because of their commission of a violation within the training camp, on the seventh of June, but the type of violation was not clarified.

Adel Muhammad:

• If you were the place of the Football Association, I would not take the same punishment against Sultan.

• The injury made him underestimate … and this does not satisfy me and does not satisfy the masses.
