ALEXANDRIA: Ittihad of Alexandria Chairman Mohamed Mosselhi has denied speculations claiming that the board will step down in the next few hours following the team s defeat against Haras Al-Hodoud.

Board member Hesham Al-Torqi has hinted that he could quit after the club s poor performances but Mosselhi confirmed that he will remain in charge.

I have to assume my responsibilities and I have a lot of faith in the players and the technical staff, Mosselhi told FilGoal.com.

The Ittihad supremo has promised extra-bonuses for the players for any victory in the upcoming games.

The Alexandrian giants will host Zamalek next Wednesday.
