Egyptian team may have missed World Cup call
Hossam Hassan, the head coach of the Egyptian national team, selected a 26-player squad for the 2026 World Cup, including four goalkeepers: Mustafa Shobeir, Mohamed El-Shennawy, Mahdi Suleiman, and Mohamed El-Alaa, despite some criticisms over the exclusion of another player. FIFA regulations specify that the final squad must include three goalkeepers, and allow for the replacement of injured goalkeepers during the tournament, but do not permit the substitution of other players except in cases of serious injury before matches. Egypt is currently the only team with four goalkeepers in its final squad, although Germany also traveled with four goalkeepers, three of whom are on the official roster.
