Liverpool’s star forward, Mohamed Salah, headlines Egypt’s roster for the upcoming Africa Cup of Nations, as revealed by manager Rui Vitoria.
Salah will be accompanied in the attacking lineup by Al-Ahly’s Mahmoud Kahraba. Notable omissions from the squad include Abdallah Said, Mahmoud Hamdy, and Al Ahly’s Hussein El Shahat and Mohamed Magdy.
Vitoria, mindful of Egypt’s recent Cup of Nations history, expressed caution, stating, “We will treat each game as a final.”
Egypt, drawn in Group B with Mozambique, Ghana, and Cape Verde, aims to rebound from their 2021 final defeat to Senegal.
The squad features a mix of experienced players, including Arsenal’s Mohamed Elneny, and promising talents across various European clubs.
