El-Shenawy has been out of action since hurting a hamstring muscle during Egypt’s 3-0 World Cup qualifying victory away to Libya on 11 October.

The Cairo giants said in a brief statement that the 32-year-old normally took part in Friday’s training session after fully recovering from the injury.

He could now feature in the team’s upcoming Egyptian Premier League game against NBE club on Sunday.

Ahly were hardly impacted by the absence of the influential shot-stopper, with understudy Ali Lotfi producing some fine displays as the team hammered Niger’s USGN 7-2 on aggregate in the African Champions League second preliminary round.
