Ahmed El Fotouh
28-Year-Old
Free Agent
Unavailable against Argentina
Fotouh (hamstring) is absent from Egypt's squad for Tuesday's World Cup Round of 16 clash against Argentina.
ANALYSIS
Fotouh was unable to recover in time after missing training sessions leading up to the knockout fixture. The left-back had already been sidelined for the victory over Australia and will now miss a second consecutive match due to the hamstring issue. His continued absence leaves Karim Hafez in line to maintain his role on the left side of defense. Fotouh's next chance to return will depend on Egypt advancing and his ability to resume full training in the coming days.
