A rematch of the 2021 Africa Cup of Nations final will take place later this month over two legs as Egypt and Senegal square off to determine who will obtain one of Africa’s spots at the 2022 FIFA World Cup. Earlier this week Egypt manager Carlos Queiroz announced on social media the nine foreign-based players who will be called into the Pharaohs squad for the crucial matchup. Mohamed Salah and Mohamed Elneny are included as well as other regular starters such as Galatasaray’s Mostafa Mohamed and Trezeguet, who is currently on loan at Turkish side İstanbul Başakşehir from Aston Villa.
Veteran central defender Ahmed Hegazy is among the names missing out due to an injury he picked up in Cameroon. Check out the link below from Ahram for the full list of players abroad who will be in Queiroz’s squad.
