Liverpool’s Egyptian forward Mohamed Salah has posted a picture of himself alongside a who’s who of players past and present to represent Cairo giants Al Ahly.
Salah, 28, posted a picture on Twitter alongside former Ahly midfielder and captain Hossam Ghaly, Trezeguet, who plies his trade alongside Salah in the Premier League at Aston Villa, and current defender Mohamed Nany.
Ghaly, 39, hung up his boots in 2018 as one of Al Ahly’s most decorated and celebrated after four separate stints at the club that included four Egyptian league titles and three Egyptian Cups.
Like Ghaly, Trezeguet began his career at Africa’s most successful club, in 2012, helping the club to back-to-back CAF Champions Leagues.
Defender Nany, 25, has made more than 120 appearances for Al Ahly since his debut in 2014. And he plays alongside Salah and Trezeguet in the Egypt national team.
The Egypt international helped Liverpool to a third-place finish in the 2020/21 Premier League, 16 points behind champions Manchester City.
He has scored 125 goals for the Merseysiders since joining from Roma in 2017, winning the Champions League in 2019 and the Premier League in 2020.
Unlike Ghaly, Trezeguet and Nany, Salah has no playing connection with Al Ahly. He began his career at Cairo-based Al Mokawloon in 2010 before beginning his odyssey across Europe at clubs in Switzerland, Italy and England.
