Mohamed Salah Joins Egypt’s National Team in 2026 World Cup Qualifiers
Liverpool star winger Mohamed Salah has joined Egypt’s national team camp as they prepare for the upcoming 2026 World Cup qualifiers against Burkina Faso and Guinea-Bissau, scheduled for June 6 and 11, respectively.
This marks a significant moment for the Pharaohs as they aim to secure their spot in the World Cup under coach Hossam Hassan’s leadership. The presence of Salah, one of the world’s top footballers, is expected to boost the team’s morale and performance in these crucial matches.
During the camp, Salah was seen in a photo with coach Hossam Hassan, sporting a new hairstyle. The image has been widely shared and discussed among fans, highlighting Salah’s fresh look after cutting his hair, adding to the excitement surrounding his return to the national team.
This will be his first time joining the national team under coach Hossam Hassan’s leadership, as Salah missed the last national team camp in March due to his rehabilitation and recovery from an injury sustained while playing for Liverpool.
There were previous reports of a rift between Salah and Hassan, adding tension to their professional relationship. However, both the Egyptian Football Association and Sports Minister Ashraf Sobhy have confirmed that any issues have been resolved, paving the way for Salah’s participation in the World Cup qualifiers.
Egypt currently leads Group A in the World Cup qualifiers, having won their previous matches against Djibouti and Sierra Leone with impressive scores of 6-0 and 2-0, respectively. The upcoming match against Burkina Faso in Cairo will be Hassan’s first competitive appearance as the Pharaohs’ coach.
The upcoming games are critical for Egypt’s aspirations to return to the World Cup stage, and Salah’s involvement is a major boost for the team’s chances. Fans are eagerly looking forward to seeing their captain lead the Pharaohs to victory in these pivotal matches.
