The Egypt forward sustained the injury after coming on as a second-half substitute in the 4-1 win, but should be fit for next month’s crucial qualifier in South Africa.

On the other hand, Liberian striker Francis Doe will resume full training on Friday following a knee problem.

The injury-prone Doe is strongly poised to leave Ahli in the near future as the league holders are still looking for another foreigner to beef up their frontline.
