Hussein Amouta uses friendly matches to prepare substitutes and young players at Al Ahly ahead of the big clash.

The coaching staff of Al Ahly is set to benefit from two friendly matches against Al Hilal of Libya and Misr El Makasa, aimed at preparing substitute and young players who have not had the chance to play in previous matches under Hussein Ammouta. This is part of the coaching staff's plan to maintain the match fitness of the first-team players while also giving opportunities to those who do not participate regularly, ensuring they are adequately prepared.

The coaching staff at Al Ahly aims to make the most of the break by preparing substitutes and ensuring the readiness of as many players as possible, especially ahead of the resumption of competitions and the anticipated clash against Zamalek in the league.

Friendly matches hold special significance for the coaching staff, given the desire to maintain the team's physical and technical readiness and to prevent players from being affected by the break in official matches, while also testing some players and giving them the chance to prove their readiness before competitions resume.

The director of football indicated that the team will meet Al Hilal of Libya on September 30 in their first friendly match during the break, before facing Misr El Makasa on October 3 in their second friendly encounter.

The coaching staff had given the players a four-day break after the competitions were halted due to the international agenda, before the team returned to training last Monday evening at El Tetsh Stadium in preparation for the upcoming program.

The coaching staff aims to maximize benefits during the break through the two friendly matches to prepare the players and increase their technical and physical readiness ahead of the resumption of official competitions.
