Moroccan defender Mahmoud Bentayg suffers injury at Zamalek

Zamalek SC have confirmed the nature of the injury suffered by Mahmoud Bentayg, dealing a setback to the team during a crucial stage of the season.

The Moroccan international was absent from Zamalek’s clash against Pyramids FC in the third round of the Egyptian Premier League.

Rehabilitation Underway

Bentayg is currently undergoing a specialised rehabilitation program under the supervision of the club’s medical staff, as efforts intensify to speed up his recovery.

Reports indicate that Zamalek are working against time to have the player fit for their upcoming match against ENPPI SC, scheduled for Monday in the fourth round of the final stage of the league title race.

Hamstring Injury Forces Absence

The injury has been identified as a hamstring problem, which had been troubling the player since earlier in the week. Medical examinations later confirmed that he was not fit to feature, prompting the technical staff to leave him out of the squad against Pyramids.

Growing Injury Concerns for Moroccan Players

Bentayg’s situation comes shortly after another setback involving Youssef Belamri, who recently suffered a serious injury while playing for Al Ahly SC.

Race Against Time

With the league entering a crucial phase, Zamalek will be hoping for Bentayg’s swift return. His recovery could prove vital as the club pushes to stay competitive in the title race.
