The Pharaohs boss was speaking at his first press-conference since his appointment

Egypt head coach Hossam El-Badry has revealed he hopes to end the ongoing strife between star player Mohamed Salah and the national team.

The Liverpool star was supposedly upset with the failure of the Egyptian Football Association (EFA) to send their votes in time for the Best Fifa Football Awards, as Egypt’s votes were absent.

Fifa explained on Wednesday, as follows, "During the monitoring of the votes submitted by the Egyptian Football Association (EFA) on August 15, it was remarked that the signatures on the voting forms were in capital letters and thus seemed not valid (not authentic).
