Ajayi and El Shenawy headline Al Ahly squad for Wydad Casablanca clash

Junior Ajayi and Mohamed El Shenawy have been named in the Al Ahly squad for Saturday’s Caf Champions League first-leg semi-final against Wydad Casablanca.

The reigning Egyptian Premier League kings are gunning for their ninth African title, however, they must navigate their way past the Moroccans who are eyeing a third continental crown.

To make this dream a reality, coach Pitso Mosimane has announced a strong 22-man squad with the former Nigeria U23 star making the cut.

Also, Mahmoud Kahraba has been declared fit for the crunch tie, while the Red Devils will be without defender Ramy Rabia, who is down with a muscular injury.
