The media reported the latest progress of the Egyptian national team's preparations for the Africa Cup of Nations.
Internal sources from the Egyptian national team revealed that captain Mohamed Salah is holding intensive player meetings to inspire the entire team to go all out in the Africa Cup of Nations and strive to bring the championship trophy back to Cairo.
A national team source told the media that Salah has entered a fully focused state of preparation at the training camp in Morocco, guiding all players to enter the same state while imposing strict restrictions on external contacts.
The source pointed out that Salah has discussed the importance of the tournament and the necessity of winning the championship with each player individually, urging everyone to cooperate fully on and off the field to achieve the goal. The players have made a promise to Salah—similar to the vow that Argentine superstar Lionel Messi received before the 2022 World Cup—that all players confirmed they will
“dedicate the championship trophy to Salah as a reward for his years of support.”
The Egyptian international players are eager to win the Africa Cup of Nations, not only to help Salah resolve his recent difficulties at Liverpool but also to hope that he can be crowned for the first time with the "Pharaohs", adding another honor to his brilliant career with the Egyptian national team.
The Egyptian national team is about to usher in their first match of the 2025 Africa Cup of Nations, facing Zimbabwe in the first round of the group stage. The match between the two teams will be held at 22:00 Cairo time tomorrow (Monday).
