He will train lightly, but he wont be available for Mondays friendly he added.
The Cairo giants will also do without Wael Goma, Sherif Abdel-Fadil Abdullah El-Said and Ahmed Shedeed Kenawy due to injuries they sustained while training in the Emirates camp.
The Red Devils launched a closed camp in UAE within preparations for the game against Ethiopian Coffee in the 32nd round of the CAF African Champions League on 23 March. They only resumed recently, as they had a 40-day mourning period after the Port Said football stadium attacks on 1 February, which left over 70 dead – many of them Ahly fans. Since the incident, domestic football has been put on hold.
Without the services of injured shoot stopper, Sherif Ekrami, Ahly lost 3-2 to Kuwaiti side Shabab in their first friendly in Emirates. They still have two friendlies in hand during the outside camp.
Ekrami will be available for Mondays game against Emirates team Dubai after recovering.
