💪 Zamalek SC will have a major boost ahead of their upcoming Egyptian Premier League fixture, as Nabil Emad Dunga returns to the squad for the match against Bank Al Ahly, scheduled for 8 PM next Thursday as part of Matchday 12 of the competition.

Head coach Yannick Ferreira had earlier rested Dunga for both Confederation Cup encounters against Dekedaha FC (Somalia) to prevent fatigue and ensure his full fitness for domestic matches, especially since the midfielder is considered one of the team’s most essential players.

⚽ Zamalek has been struggling in recent league rounds, going three consecutive games without a win. The team drew 1-1 with Ghazl El Mahalla in Matchday 10, had a similar 1-1 result against El Gouna, and suffered a 2-1 defeat to Al Ahly in the Cairo Derby, losing their hold on the top spot.

🔥 On the continental stage, Zamalek secured qualification for the CAF Confederation Cup group stage after defeating Dekedaha FC with an aggregate score of 7-0, winning 6-0 in the first leg and 1-0 in the return leg.

📊 Since taking charge, Yannick Ferreira has led Zamalek in 16 matches, recording 7 victories, 3 draws, and 2 defeats. Under his leadership, the team has scored 21 goals while conceding only 7, reflecting solid defensive structure despite recent inconsistency.

✨ Dunga’s return offers a much-needed balance to Zamalek’s midfield, as Ferreira looks to strengthen both defense and attack in hopes of returning to the winning track against Bank Al Ahly.
