Wednesday 29-04-2026
The media personality Khaled El-Ghandour revealed the truth about the exclusion of Hossam Hassan, the coach of the Egyptian national team, of Ahmed Sayed Zizo and Emam Ashour from the Pharaohs' squad for the 2026 World Cup.

Al-Ghandour said on his program "Stad Al-Mehwar" that the coaching staff of the Egyptian national team responded to these reports, confirming that Hossam Hassan does not rush to evaluate players based on one or two matches. He emphasized that Zizo and Emam Ashour are key players, and the decision to include or exclude them has not been finalized yet, as there is still enough time before the final selections.

Hossam Hassan is monitoring all the players in the remaining league matches, as well as during the Pharaohs' camp and the friendly match against Russia on May 28, before submitting the list by the final deadline on the 30th of the same month.

The Egypt national team is in Group G of the World Cup, alongside Belgium, Iran, and New Zealand.
