After 12 rounds, Fayoum SC is only 11th in the group A of the Egyptian Second Division and good results are needed to bring the team in the first half of the classification in order to avoid relegation to the Third Division.
Fayoum SC had a rather poor start of the season and head coach Wael Qabbani was replaced in October by Barakat Ibrahim. Still, better results failed to appear, as Fayoum won only 2 matches and drew 6 times, while losing the other matches. Moreover, Barakat Ibrahim left the team during the away game at Beni Suef, accusing the club management for negotiating with other coaches in order to replace him in front of a large audience, making any reconciliation impossible.
In the last game, at home against Sohag, the team was supervised by interim coach Ahmed Latif but it was obvious that a new head coach was needed.

Finally, the board of directors decided to bring Magdy Tolba as the new head coach, in hope of resurrecting a team who is in need of many points to remain in the Second Division.

Magdy Tolba has already started working and had a first training session with the players, assisted by most members of the club management, including the club president, Ali Massoud.
