Abu Rida Explains Egyptian Club Expansion
Hany Abu Rida, president of the Egyptian Football Association, revealed the reason behind the request to increase the number of clubs participating in African tournaments. This comes in response to global developments and the increase in the number of teams in the 2026 World Cup, which will feature 48 nations, with a trend towards expanding club participation in future editions. He explained that the proposal aims to serve the interests of Egyptian football and has faced some reservations from other continental federations. The matter was discussed with CAF President Patrice Motsepe, and it is expected to be approved in the upcoming season after a thorough review of its marketing and commercial aspects. Abu Rida also confirmed that club Al Ahly's president, Mahmoud Al Khatib, has not approached him regarding this issue, and that he is focused on the broader and future interests of Egyptian football.
