Zamalek Fans “player no. 12”
Talking about Zamalek fans is presenting how can a real supporters contribute in the road of success for a football club, showing fans having real passion for football and know how to be the most important player in the team or player number 12, among the most dedicated and passionate supporters in African football, called the “White Knights” supporting their club the “White Castle”, they occupy the South Curve of the stadium “Curva Sud”
Zamalek fans are making great contribution in season 2025/26 to lead their team to win the Egyptian league title and the CAF Confederation Cup, other than the obstacles the club face from severe financial meltdown, recurring FIFA transfer bans, and ongoing administrative and legal disputes, they know how to stand for their team and give true support that is reflected in the field where players fight to win each and every match they play, not to forget the coach Motamed Gamal and his role in making the team stable after the team was suffering and in tough situation, he managed to get the best from each player and knew how to position players in the field, his vision to make tactics for every match to win it and his player substitutions in each match plays very important role to win matches, I think no one thought an early career Egyptian coach that doesn’t have that great cv in coaching, would do that progress with a team in such situation,
Again we are saying that Zamalek fans are playing a crucial role in the club’s survival and success during a season defined by both financial crisis and competitive dominance, that’s showed by how they ensure “full-house” attendance for major knockout matches, at some matches tickets are sold out in five minutes after being published.
Winning the trophies or losing doesn’t undo the effort of the fans that shows all kind of support for their club, we should never underestimate the power of fans in football and how they affect the team results, their chants and tifos which reflect their identity is being translated into the team power and spirit.
