Cairo-15 July 2021: Al Ahly players, Ali Lotfy and Walter Bwalya, participated in the team's first training session in Morocco on Wednesday and they are ready to help the team in the CAF Champions League final If needed. 

 

Lotfy was out of the team's squad in the last two league matches against Arab Contractors and Misr Lel Makkasa for injury while Bwalya, who participated in the second half against Arab Contractors, missed the team's 4-1 win over Misr Lel Makkasa.

 

Al Ahly players performed their first training in Casablanca on Wednesday at Kahramaa training ground, which will also host the team's training session on Thursday. 

 

The team will train on Friday at Mohamed V Stadium, the venue of the CAF Champions League final, scheduled on Saturday night at 9:00 PM (Cairo Time). 

 

The Red Devils hope to achieve the prestigious title for the second straight season for the third time in their history after winning the title twice in a row in (2005-2006) and (2012-2013). 

 

The Egyptian giants will meet Kaizer Chiefs of South Africa for the first time in the CAF Champions League competition and the second time overall as the two teams met in 2002 in the CAF Super Cup, which ended with a 4-1 win for the Egyptians.
