Moroccan coach Hussein Ammouta, manager of Al Ahly, has decided to call up several youth players in the upcoming phase as part of his plan to strengthen the team with young talent. Among them is Iyad Medhat, who is emerging as a candidate for a chance with the first team, as the coaching staff aims to correct the defensive mistakes that have appeared in recent matches.
Ammouta's decision to promote some youth players follows a 3-3 draw with Al Qanah in the Egyptian league, a match that highlighted some defensive challenges the coach is looking to address before upcoming fixtures by reassessing player performances and utilizing the ready talents in the youth sector.
Iyad Medhat among Ammouta's priorities
Iyad Medhat is considered one of the key names receiving the coaching staff's attention, as they aim to give opportunities to young players capable of making an impact, given the need to increase competition within the team and enhance readiness in the backline.
The coaching staff aims to expand the options available to Ammouta and provide youth players a chance to prove their abilities while evaluating their capacity to meet the demands of participating with the first team.
