Al Ahly eye global upset in star-studded FIFA Club World Cup
African giants Al Ahly SC are once again preparing to showcase their pedigree on the global stage as they gear up for the expanded 2025 FIFA Club World Cup in the United States. The Egyptian powerhouse and record African champions , will enter the tournament aiming to translate their continental dominance into international recognition. Drawn into one of the tournament's most high-profile groups, Al Ahly will face Inter Miami (USA), Palmeiras (Brazil), and FC Porto (Portugal) in what promises to be a stern test of their credentials in Group A. Despite the glamour surrounding Inter Miami — a club boasting global icons like Lionel Messi, Luis Suárez, and Sergio Busquets — Al Ahly will be equally confident as one of the best African clubs who are also not new to the Club World Cup. The American side, while heavy on star power, still lacks the cohesion and high-level tournament experience that Al Ahly have developed through decades of continental competition. However, it's Palmeiras and FC Porto who may pose more systemic threats. Palmeiras, the reigning Brazilian champions, bring relentless intensity, tactical organisation, and depth — hallmarks of modern South American football. FC Porto, a storied European club with a reputation for technical precision and youth development, offer another layer of challenge with their quick passing game and European match temperament. Now under the leadership of Spaniard Jose Riveiro, who took over the reins just a few weeks ago after a successful tenure with Orlando Pirates in South Africa, Al Ahly have the added advantage of a coach who knows how to win cup competitions. Emam Ashour has emerged as a central figure in this tactical setup, contributing 9 goals and 4 assists so far this season. His energy and creativity will be vital in unlocking opposition defences. Slovenian forward Nejc Gradisar has brought versatility and flair to the frontline, while fan favourites Afsha and Taher Mohamed continue to offer consistent offensive threat. Al Ahly have built a reputation for overachieving on the world stage, including multiple third-place finishes at past Club World Cups. While Group A is undoubtedly challenging, the Cairo club's rich tournament experience, tactical cohesion, and winning mentality make them a potential dark horse. Al Ahly SC FIFA Club World Cup Group A Fixtures: Sunday, 15 June: Al Ahly vs Inter Miami - 00h00 GMT Thursday, 19 June: Palmeiras vs Al Ahly – 16h00 GMT Tuesday, 24 June: FC Porto vs Al Ahly – 01h00 GMT

I returned to Ahly for more achievements: Winger Trezeguet - Egyptian Football
Ahly's returning star winger Mahmoud 'Trezeguet' Hassan says he didn't hesitate to accept the offer to rejoin the Cairo giants, insisting that his return is to secure more achievements, not only playing at the anticipated Club World Cup. In late January, Ahly announced the signing of their former player Trezeguet from Turkish side Trabzonspor on a five-year deal starting this summer. "There weren't previous negotiations to join Ahly. I am a fan of the club before being a player. I had my own ambitions to play abroad, and I already did what I wanted, but once I received a call from Ahly President Mahmoud El-Khatib telling me the club needed me, everything was over immediately," Trezeguet told ON Sport TV channel on Saturday. "Firstly, Trabzonspor asked for a huge amount for the transfer, but I said I would play for Ahly or wouldn't play football again," he added. The 30-year-old returned to his boyhood club this summer after a decade-long spell abroad that included stints with Anderlecht, Aston Villa, Kasimpasa, Trabzonspor, İstanbul Başakşehir, and Qatar's Al-Rayyan, where he spent the last season on loan. Returning to the Egyptian league wasn't a choice for Trezeguet at the time being, as he had already received lucrative offers from other Egyptian clubs, but he refused, preferring to join the Reds again. "I chose to rejoin Ahly despite receiving offers with triple my current salary. My return wasn't only for the Club World Cup, as the contract runs for five years. I didn't want to return to Ahly at the age of retirement, but to achieve more goals here," the Egyptian international explained. The first edition of the expanded FIFA Club World Cup, which will kick off on 14 June, will be the first test for Trezeguet with Ahly, and according to him, the players will do their best to please the fans. The African giants, drawn in Group A alongside Palmeiras (Brazil), FC Porto (Portugal), and Inter Miami (USA), kick off the tournament against the American side on Sunday, 15 June. "I say to our fans, you can dream of winning all tournaments, even the Club World Cup. Ahly taught us to dream. We know that the mission will be difficult, but the players have the quality and determination and will do their best," he concluded. Ahly made several high-profile signings this summer, including Tunisian midfielder Mohamed Ali Ben Romdhane and the return of Malian international Aliou Dieng, alongside Trezeguet. Amid their current training camp in Miami, Ahly will be facing Mexican club Pachuca in a friendly match on Sunday night.
