Zamalek SC has completed all necessary arrangements for midfielder Ahmed Hamdy’s travel to Germany, where he is expected to undergo a thorough and final medical examination under the supervision of the German doctor overseeing his case. This is part of his gradual return to football after recovering from a recent cruciate ligament tear.
Previously, Ahmed Hamdy had undergone an intensive rehabilitation program lasting several months. His initial recovery phase began immediately after surgery in Cairo, before traveling to Dubai to continue his treatment using advanced medical equipment and undergoing detailed physical assessments to evaluate his injured knee’s response to treatment. The results were positive, prompting the medical team to proceed with a trip to Germany for final evaluation before granting him full clearance to return to team training and official matches.
Ahmed Hamdy is considered a key player by the technical staff, led by Portuguese head coach José Peseiro, especially after his impressive performances before the injury. He is known for his great technical abilities in midfield, contributing both offensively and defensively.
A responsible source within Zamalek confirmed that the player’s trip to Germany reflects the club’s commitment to providing top-tier medical care for its athletes. The coordination with the German doctor was handled directly to ensure accurate diagnosis and long-term health for the player.
Meanwhile, the first-team technical staff has granted players a rest day from training on Friday, following the team’s significant effort in their recent Egyptian Premier League match against Al Masry.
Zamalek showed strong performance during the match despite the tactical and physical challenges. The players executed the coach’s instructions with precision, prompting Peseiro to give them a short break before resuming preparations.
The team is set to resume group training on Saturday at Abdel Latif Abu Regeila Stadium in Mit Okba as part of their preparations for the upcoming match against National Bank of Egypt FC, scheduled for Monday evening in the fourth round of the final phase of the league.
This match is seen as critical for Zamalek as they aim to close the gap with the league leaders and regain their position at the top of the standings. The technical staff is focused on preparing all players physically and tactically while also addressing errors from previous matches.
In parallel, Zamalek’s football management is closely monitoring the injury situation and maintains regular communication with the medical staff to ensure the proper treatment and recovery for all players, enabling them to return to their peak performance without rushing.
Regarding Ahmed Hamdy, the player expressed his satisfaction with the progress in his health, stating that he feels much better and looks forward to returning to the pitch stronger than before. He also thanked Zamalek’s fans for their unwavering support during his injury period.
