UAE billionaire Khalaf Al Habtoor gifts new Mitsubishi cars to Egypt’s entire World Cup delegation

Every member of Egypt’s 2026 FIFA World Cup delegation is set to receive a brand-new Mitsubishi vehicle after UAE billionaire Khalaf Ahmad Al Habtoor announced a reward to recognise the team’s memorable tournament campaign.

The gesture extends beyond the players, with coaches, medical personnel and administrative staff also included in the initiative.

According to the announcement, everyone who contributed to Egypt’s World Cup journey will receive a new car in recognition of their role in the team’s success.

The reward was coordinated with the Egyptian Football Association after the national team returned home following its World Cup campaign, where the delegation received a hero’s welcome.

Al Habtoor said the gift was intended to honour a group that had represented both Egypt and the wider Arab world with distinction during the tournament.

Entire Egypt delegation included in special reward

Rather than limiting the recognition to the players, the initiative embraces every member of the Egyptian delegation involved in the World Cup.

The coaching staff, medical team and administrators have all been included in the reward, acknowledging the collective effort behind the national team’s achievements.

The decision reflects the belief that success at a major international tournament is built through the work of an entire group, not only those who take to the pitch.

Following Egypt’s return home, the Egyptian Football Association worked alongside Al Habtoor to coordinate the distribution of the vehicles.

The delegation had already received an enthusiastic reception from supporters after arriving back from the tournament, with the latest announcement providing another moment of celebration.

The initiative recognises the contributions made by everyone who helped prepare and support the team throughout its World Cup campaign.

Al Habtoor praises Egypt’s World Cup achievement

Explaining the motivation behind the gift, Khalaf Ahmad Al Habtoor said he wanted to celebrate a team that had inspired pride across the Arab world.

According to Al Habtoor, Egypt’s performances during the tournament deserved recognition beyond words alone.

He described the reward as a tribute to a delegation whose achievements resonated with football supporters throughout the region.

The billionaire’s announcement highlights his appreciation for the commitment shown by players and staff during the competition.

By extending the reward to every member of the delegation, the initiative recognises the combined efforts required to compete on the world stage.

Recognition follows memorable tournament

The gift comes after Egypt completed a World Cup campaign that earned widespread praise and a warm welcome upon the team’s return home.

The delegation’s reception reflected the appreciation shown by supporters following the tournament.

Now, the announcement of new Mitsubishi vehicles for every member of the travelling party adds another chapter to the celebrations surrounding Egypt’s World Cup journey.

Players, coaches, medical staff and administrators will all benefit from the initiative, underlining the collective nature of the achievement.

For Al Habtoor, the reward represents more than a personal gesture.

It is a way of acknowledging a national team that, in his view, brought pride to Egypt and to the Arab world through its performances on football’s biggest stage.

With the initiative coordinated alongside the Egyptian Football Association, every individual who played a part in the campaign will receive the same recognition, ensuring that the success of the national team is shared by the entire delegation.
