The Pharaohs star to wear the shirt no. 74 with the Viola in a possible reference to the honoring of Ahly 74 fans who died in Egypt’s worst-ever football stadium disaster in Port Said
This number is thought to be a reference to the honoring of Ahly 74 fans who died in clashes with Masry supporters in Egypt’s worst-ever football stadium disaster in Port Said, in February 2012.
Egypt and Ahly former star Mohamed Abou-Treika told Salah in a short message via twitter on Wednesday: “74.. Thank you Salah.”
