Pitso Mosimane has named his 22-man Al Ahly squad set to face his former club Mamelodi Sundowns in their CAF Champions League encounter in Cairo on Saturday.
In what’s been dubbed the blockbuster fixture of Group A, the two sides will do battle at the Cairo International Stadium while Al-Merrikh and Al Hilal contest their Sudan derby at the Al Ahly Stadium in Al Salam.
The most notable inclusion in his star-studded squad has to be the return of Percy Tau, who will face Sundowns for the first time since he left the Brazilians for Premier League side Brighton and Hove Albion in 2019.

Goalkeepers: Mohamed El Shenawy, Ali Lotfy, Moustafa Shobeir
