Al Ahly’s right-back dilemma deepens after Club World Cup exit

Al Ahly’s early exit from the 2025 FIFA Club World Cup has thrown a spotlight on a lingering weakness in the squad, an unsettled right-back position.

After leaking six goals in just three Group A matches, the defensive unit, particularly the right flank, is under heavy scrutiny.

Despite drawing with Inter Miami and Porto, and losing to Palmeiras, the Egyptian giants were exposed in transitions and wide areas. Head coach Jose Riveiro is now pushing for urgent reinforcements.

Veteran Mohamed Hany, with over 350 games for the club, continues to divide opinions due to inconsistent form. Omar Kamal, known for his versatility, and the injury-prone Karim Fouad offer depth, but no clear solution. Emergency alternatives like Hussein El-Shahat or Zizo remain temporary fixes at best.

Transfer targets like Ahmed Eid and Ahmed Hani have been explored, but neither has convinced the Al Ahly board. For now, the club remains caught between patchwork solutions and unconvincing market options as it searches for a dependable answer.

With the new season fast approaching, the clock is ticking for Al Ahly to fix their defensive blind spot.
