🏥 Youssef Belammari Prepares for Surgery in Germany
Medical examinations conducted on the player in recent days confirmed that he had suffered an ACL tear, prompting Al Ahly’s medical staff to arrange a special treatment plan and coordinate his trip to Germany for the surgery.
The decision to perform the operation in Germany comes as Al Ahly’s medical staff seek to provide the player with specialized medical care, particularly because ACL injuries require precise surgery followed by a lengthy rehabilitation program before a return to football.

🩺 Rehabilitation Program After Surgery
Following the surgery, Youssef Belammari is expected to begin a new phase of treatment through a rehabilitation program tailored to his medical condition and recovery progress.
Rehabilitation is one of the most important stages in recovering from an ACL injury, as the player needs to gradually regain muscle strength, mobility and physical fitness before receiving medical clearance to return to training and competitive matches.
Al Ahly’s medical staff will continue to monitor the player’s condition closely in the coming period, in coordination with the doctors and specialists overseeing his treatment and rehabilitation.
🔴 Belammari’s Injury a Blow for Al Ahly
Youssef Belammari’s injury represents a major blow for Al Ahly at the beginning of the new season, particularly because the player had been part of the coaching staff’s plans due to his abilities and expected contribution during the upcoming competitions.
Al Ahly will now need to deal with the player’s absence by relying on the available options within the squad, especially with the team facing a busy schedule of domestic and continental competitions throughout the season.
Al Ahly fans will be closely following Belammari’s condition after the surgery, hoping that the procedure and rehabilitation program go smoothly and that the player can regain his fitness and return to the pitch after completing all stages of treatment. 🏆🔥
For now, the priority is the player’s health and ensuring that he makes a complete recovery before considering a return date, especially because recovering from an ACL injury requires strict adherence to the medical program and avoiding a rushed comeback.
