The "Al-Ahram" portal reported that the coaching staff of the Egyptian national team, led by Hossam Hassan, has included player Mahmoud Hassan "Trezeguet" as one of their main options for the upcoming match against New Zealand in the second round of the group stage of the 2026 World Cup, following his absence from the opening match against Belgium.

She explained that the coaching staff is currently weighing several offensive options as part of their efforts to strengthen the team's attacking power ahead of the anticipated match next Monday.

Trezeguet was absent from the Belgium match, which ended in a 1-1 draw.

The coaching staff aims to benefit from the player's return in the New Zealand match, relying on his extensive international experience and high ability to decide strong confrontations.

The portal added that Hossam Hassan sees Trezeguet as one of the important offensive solutions, given the need to diversify playing styles and increase effectiveness in front of the goal, during a match that is considered a significant milestone in the national team's journey in the tournament.
