Yasser Ibrahim, the defender for Al Ahly, suffered a new injury during the team's training session yesterday, Thursday. He complained of pain in his ankle, which prevented him from completing the morning training as part of the Red Devils' preparations to face Ugandan side Kitarra on Sunday in the second leg of the CAF Confederation Cup Round of 32.
Yasser Ibrahim returned to group training with Al Ahly a few days ago after a long absence due to an ankle sprain he sustained in a league match against المقاولون on September 9. However, he felt new pain in his ankle, forcing him to leave yesterday's training session. Reports from Al Ahly indicate that the ankle pain Yasser Ibrahim experienced during the training is minor.
Al Ahly drew 3-3 with Al Qanah in the league last Wednesday and has begun preparations for the return match against Kitarra, aiming to secure their advancement to the next round after winning the first leg last Saturday 2-1.
Yasser Ibrahim missed the first leg against Kitarra and will also be absent for the return match due to a two-match suspension, along with a fine of $5,000, according to a decision by the CAF Disciplinary Committee due to incidents that occurred during the match between Al Ahly and Tunisian side Esperance in the quarter-finals of the previous CAF Champions League, resulting from violations deemed contrary to the principles of sportsmanship and the regulations governing continental competitions.
