In addition to having been a fantastic footballer, Zaki was a sulphurous character who was talked regarding many times off the pitch. Indeed, the former Hull City striker had behavioral issues and this had repercussions on his career.
After ending his football career, the Pharaoh continues to be active in the world of football. He had to speak on the current superstars of world football, in particular, Egypt-Senegal oblige, on Sadio Mané, new African champion.
“If I had had the talent and the temperament of Sadio Mané, it is clear that I would have obtained a Ballon d’Or. I really like this player who gives everything for his country. He is talented, humble, strong-minded and ambitious, he should have been Egyptian.”
Those accolades come two weeks away from one of the most anticipated shocks of these play-offs. And precisely on the Egyptian side, the coach made public a first list of 9 expatriates including Mohamed Salah (Liverpool, England), Mohamed ElNeny (Arsenal, England) or Mahmoud Hassan Trézeguet (Basaksehir, Turkey). Waiting for the locals. It is necessary to specify in this list of professionals, the absences of Ahmed Hegazi and Akram Tawfik, both injured during the Cameroonian Can.
At the Lions of Senegal, coach Aliou Cissé should publish his list on March 18. A list following Can which should not have new faces, and where we should note the return of Youssouf Sabaly. The Senegalese right side, well recovered from his injury, having since resumed club competition.
