Egypt national team coach Bob Bradley has released a list of 30 players who will form his roster for the upcoming World Cup 2014 qualifier against Mozambique that will take place on June 1 at the Borg El Arab stadium in Alexandria.
Meanwhile, Ahmed Fathi and Sayed Moawad are back in Bradley�s team after missing out on the previous training camp due to their respective knocks.
Unsurprisingly, the ever-controversial Shikabala has been dropped following the outburst he directed at Zamalek coach Hassan Shehata during a recent Caf Champions League match against Maghreb Fes. Former Wigan player, Amr Zaki, was overlooked as well.
