Frosinone announces Omar Fayed's inclusion in Egypt national team
Frosinone has sparked controversy regarding Egypt's national team squad for the upcoming November camp after announcing the inclusion of their defender Omar Fayed in the Pharaohs' ranks in preparation for the matches against Malawi in the qualifiers for the Africa Cup of Nations, despite his name not being included in the list announced by Ali Maher, the team's head coach, so far.
Frosinone has confirmed on its official website the call-up of Omar Fayed to participate with the Egypt national team during the current international break, in preparation for the matches of the third and fourth rounds of the qualifiers, scheduled to take place on November 13 and 17.
The Italian club's announcement comes amid doubts surrounding Mohamed Abdelmonem's position regarding joining the national team, after he was forced to leave his team's last match against Angers, with possibilities of him suffering an injury.
Ali Maher has announced the Egypt national team squad in preparation for the two matches, with Omar Fayed's name missing, raising questions about the possibility of the Frosinone defender joining the camp, especially given the uncertainty surrounding Mohamed Abdelmonem's condition.
The announced list of the Egypt national team is as follows:
Goalkeepers: Mustafa Shobeir, Mohamed El Shenawy, Mehdi Suleiman, Mohamed Alaa.
Defenders: Mohamed Abdelmonem, Ramy Rabia, Hossam Abdelmaguid, Mahmoud El Wensh, Mahmoud Marei, Mohamed Hany, Tarek Alaa, Karim Hafez, Ahmed Fatouh.
Midfield: Mohanad Lasheen, Marwan Ateya, Mahmoud Saber, Mohamed Shehata, Nasser Maher, Ibrahim Adel, Mahmoud Hassan Trezeguet, Ahmed Mostafa Zizo, Haissem Hassan.
