Al Ahly vs Sundowns
Al Ahly squad for Sundowns unfolds
Nigerian forward Junior Ajayi has finally made a return to Al Ahly squad that will face South Africa powerhouse Mamelodi Sundowns in the first leg of their CAF Champions League quarterfinal clash.
Al Ahly will face Sundowns for a third consecutive time in the quarterfinal stage of the Champions League, having met them in the same stage of the tournament in the past two editions, with each winning one of the two.
The Reds will take on the Brazilians on Saturday, May 15 in Cairo in the first leg encounter, with the return leg scheduled to be played on Saturday, May 22.
Ajayi has returned after a lengthy period on the sidelines due to injury, but it remains highly doubtful that he features for the Red Devils on Saturday.
Along with him, Al Ahly playmaker Nasser Maher is also back in the mix after missing out on the team’s latest league fixture against Zamalek. On the other hand, Akram Tawfik is set to miss the game.
Al Ahly full squad:
Goalkeepers: Mohamed El-Shennawy, Ali Lotfy, Mostafa Shobier
Defenders: Badr Benoun, Mahmoud Wahid, Ahmed Ramadan Beckham, Mohamed Hany, Mohamed Metwally, Ramy Rabia, Yasser Ibrahim, Ayman Ashraf, Ahmed Nabil Kouka
Midfielders: Aliou Dieng, Amr El-Sulaya, Mohamed Magdy Afsha, Mahmoud Kahraba, Walid Soliman, Nasser Maher, Hussein El-Shahat, Taher Mohamed Taher
