Al Ahly director of football Sayed Abdelhafiz has announced that team goalkeeper Ali Lotfy and central defender Yasser Ibrahim has tested positive for COVID19. Additionally, Rene Weiler’s assistant David Sesa also tested positive.
The Reds are just coming out of an important league outing on Monday after they had their celebrations for 42nd Egyptian Premier League title postponed as they failed to seal the title with a goalless draw against El-Ettehad.
As per the medical protocol clubs undergo the coronavirus test a day before their game since the league resumption to ensure all players are safe ahead of their match.
