Amr Zaki returns to Egypt’s Squad

Amr Zaki

Elazigspor striker Amr Zaki has won a call-up to Egypt’s squad for two friendly games next month after apparently ending a dispute with coach Bob Bradley.

The 29-year-old fell out of favour with Bradley earlier this year after hitting out at the American boss for snubbing him for the opening two World Cup qualifiers.

Zaki, who also had problems with Cairo giants Zamalek at the time, was infuriated after Bradley implied that the combative striker was way past his prime.

However, he was given a new lease of life after joining Turkish side Elazigspor in the close season. He made his debut with the club in their 3-0 defeat by Besiktas last week.

Zaki was included in a list of foreign-based players who will be part of Egypt’s squad for next month’s friendly games against Iran and Tunisia in the United Arab Emirates.
