Hossam: Salah's absence a team decision
Egyptian national team coach, Hossam Hassan, confirmed that the exclusion of star player Mohamed Salah from the South Sudan match in the 2027 Africa Cup of Nations qualifiers was agreed upon in coordination with him at Salah’s request. This was due to Salah’s desire not to play on the artificial grass field to protect his safety, especially after he was substituted in the Angola match and subsequently left the camp. He explained that the decision for Salah’s absence was to preserve his health, emphasizing that Salah is one of the team’s key players and highlighting the importance of the safety of all players. Hassan also stated that he needs Salah in upcoming matches. These remarks came amidst speculation about his relationship with Salah and previous comments regarding goalkeeper Mohamed El-Shenawy. However, Hassan emphasized his strong support for Salah, clarifying that his absence is related to physical reasons, not any disagreements.
