Zamalek announce squad for Egypt Cup semi-final

Egypt’s Zamalek interim coach Tarek Yehia has named his 21-man squad set to take on Al Masry in Egypt Cup semi-final on Saturday. 

Zamalek is coming from a poor season, ending the Egyptian Premier League in third place, knocked out from group stages in CAF Champions League and exiting the Arab Club Championship at group stages without getting a single win. 

The White Knights will be looking to save face and win the Egypt Cup to satisfy their disappointed fans, but they first need to overcome Hossam Hassan’s men.

The match list has seen the return of Ayman Hefny who was sidelined in the recent period due to an injury sustained in the Whites game against Ahli Tripoli in the CAF Champions League.

Goalkeepers: Ahmed El-Shennawy, Mahmoud Gennesh, Omar Salah.

Defenders: Osama Ibrahim, Hosny Fathi, Ali Gabr, Mohamed Magdy, Mahmoud Hamdy El-Wensh, Shawky El-Said, Ahmed Aboul-Fotouh.

Midfielders: Tarek Hamed, Ibrahim Salah, Ahmed Tawfik, Moruf Youssef, Mahmoud Dunga, Ayman Hefny, Shikabala, Mohamed Mosaad, Ahmed Refaat.

Forwards: Bassem Morsi, Hossam Paolo. Source: Kingfut
