Al Ahly star-studded squad for Club World Cup quest

Egyptian giants Al Ahly named a 23-man squad for this month’s Fifa Club World Cup in Saudi Arabia, led by recent signing Anthony Modeste. 

The Cairo-based club left out injured duo Mohamed Abdelmonem and Reda Selim but can still call on an array of talent for their campaign.

Chief among them is Modeste, the French striker who joined Al Ahly in August after a six-month spell with German club Borussia Dortmund.JAMB Portal
