Analyst brief — Egypt going into Global Cup 2026
Form
Salah-dependent as ever; recent results mixed under Hossam Hassan.
Style
Build around Salah on the right; mid-block 4-4-2.
Squad
Salah at 33 still elite; Hegazi & Hamdy the central defence; midfield workmanlike.
Tournament ceiling
Round of 16.
Biggest risk
Without Salah generating xG, Egypt have very few alternative creators.
