Ahmed Abou Moslem, former Al Ahly star, affirmed that the departure of Palestinian striker Wissam Abu Ali will not negatively impact the Red Castle. He emphasized that Al Ahly has always dealt with such situations professionally, thanks to the strength of the squad and the depth of options available in the lineup.

Al Ahly Doesn’t Rely on One Player" — The Secret Behind Their Consistency
Abou Moslem pointed out that Al Ahly is not a team that depends on one or two individuals. Instead, the club’s success is built on a complete system characterized by discipline and tactical flexibility.
He said:

"Al Ahly has the strongest and deepest squad in Egypt. Every position has more than one capable player who can perform at a high level."

He further explained that this squad depth provides the team with great stability and allows them to handle pressure and compete in multiple tournaments without being affected by individual absences.

Wissam Shined in a Moment, But Al Ahly Isn’t Built on Moments
Commenting on Wissam Abu Ali’s time at Al Ahly, Abou Moslem noted that the player showed clear development, especially during the FIFA Club World Cup, where he delivered an impressive performance and scored key goals.

He added:

"What Wissam achieved in the Club World Cup drew a lot of attention to him, but the truth is that the tournament itself created the spotlight — not consistent performance over the season."

He emphasized that Al Ahly doesn’t make decisions based on short bursts of form but on long-term consistency, physical readiness, and technical performance throughout an entire season.

Mohamed Sherif Brings Experience, Gradishar Has Potential
Abou Moslem praised striker Mohamed Sherif, describing him as a top player with goal-scoring experience who is fully capable of taking over the attacking role. He highlighted Sherif’s previous achievement as the Egyptian Premier League’s top scorer.

He also spoke about new signing Gradishar, saying the striker just needs time to adapt to the atmosphere and pressure at Al Ahly. He believes Gradishar has excellent technical qualities and could become one of the season’s standout players if given enough confidence by the coaching staff and fans.

No Concerns for Al Ahly’s Attack Next Season
In conclusion, Abou Moslem reassured fans that Al Ahly’s attacking line is in safe hands and that there is no shortage of quality up front.

"I have no concerns about the attacking department, especially with the number of physically and technically prepared players, and a head coach who knows how to get the best out of each individual."

He explained that Al Ahly operates under a clear strategy based on squad rotation and maintaining player readiness throughout the season — a key factor in the club’s constant domestic and continental dominance.
