The international full-back wants to undergo an intensive fitness program so that he can join the team in the rest of the campaign, FilGoal.com learnt.

Abdul-Hadi collected the injury during Zamalek's 2-1 defeat against arch-rivals Ahli in semis of the African Champions League in September.

Zamalek summed up their preparations on Tuesday night for their anticipated game against Harras Al-Hodoud in the Egyptian League on Wednesday.

The Cairo giants were handed a 5-0 drubbing by Al-Hodoud in Alexandria this season.

Zamalek are second on 39 points, 13 ahead of fifth-place Al-Hodoud and two behind leaders and holders Ahli.
