Mohamady, Salah comment on Hegazy’s transfer

CAIRO – 17 July 2017: Egyptian international players Ahmed el-Mohamady and Mohamed Salah commented on Ahmed Hegazy’s transfer to West Bromwich on July 17.

Hegazy, Al-Ahly’s defender, is set to sign with West Bromwich in the next few days after completing his medical test with the English club.

Mohamady spoke to Yallakora about Hegazy’s transfer saying, “I told him before that he is the only player from the Egyptian League who is capable of playing in England. Hegazy has all that it takes to play in England. West Bromwich’s style of play focuses on playing balls in the air and he is capable of doing that.”

On the other hand Salah posted a picture on his twitter account with Hegazy saying, “Welcome back to Europe, big guy!”

Hegzay performed excellently with both Al-Ahly and the Egyptian national team this season. He managed to help Al-Ahly secure the league title this season and was a contributing factor to Egypt’s second-place finish at the 2017 African Cup of Nations.
