The technical staff of the Egyptian national football team, led by Hossam Hassan, made an important request to the Professional Clubs Association before the Pharaohs go to camp next September in preparation for the qualifiers for the African Cup of Nations.
The Egyptian national team's training camp is scheduled to take place from September 21st to October 6th, according to the announced dates of the international break periods.
According to the "Batolat" website, the technical staff of the Egyptian national team requested that at least 4 or 5 rounds be played in the Premier League competition before the start of the Pharaohs' camp in September, in order to prepare the players physically and technically.
Egypt is scheduled to meet Angola in the first round in Cairo, and South Sudan in the second round of the qualifiers for the 2027 Africa Cup of Nations.
It is worth noting that the 2027 Africa Cup of Nations will be held in June and July 2027, in Uganda, Kenya and Tanzania, with the qualifying rounds starting in September and October 2026.
