El Shenawy left out of Egypt camp as dispute with team manager Hassan emerges

A disagreement has emerged between Egypt goalkeeper Mohamed El Shenawy and team manager Ibrahim Hassan, who left the injured keeper's name out of his list.

• Al Ahly announced El Shenawy sustained a grade 2 adductor strain during the Abu Qir Fertilizers match, ruling him out of the national team camp.
• Ibrahim Hassan omitted El Shenawy's name when listing absentees Trezeguet, Hamdi Fathi, and Yasser Ibrahim ahead of AFCON qualifiers against Angola and South Sudan.
• An Al Ahly source said Hassan deliberately ignored El Shenawy due to a tense relationship with the national team apparatus.
• The source said El Shenawy, the second goalkeeper behind Mostafa Shobeir, is not considering international retirement.
• Ibrahim Hassan denied any crisis between El-Shenawy and the coaching staff, calling such reports baseless.
• The team manager also denied planned talks with EFA president Hani Abou Rida, labeling those claims as unfounded.
