The Egyptian coach of the Olympic team Shawki Ghareeb decided to join the Liverpool player and the Egyptian star Mohamed Salah, to the Olympic team in the 2020 Tokyo Olympics, after a long period of controversy in the Egyptian street about the player's right to exist and the lack of many officials to join the player.
The Egyptian Olympic team had won the African Under-23 Cup, hosted by Cairo for the first time and won five consecutive games, to qualify for the 12th Tokyo Olympics in the history of the Egyptian team.
"In 2016 Brazil chose Neymar to compete for the gold medal," Gharib said in the television program with you Mona El Shazly.
"Salah must be willing to join the tournament."
The Egyptian coach settled the issue of the player's participation by answering an explicit question, is it subject only to Salah's desire? He answered decisively "Yes".
Liverpool coach Jurgen Klopp has been alarmed by Egypt's victory and their rise to the 2020 Tokyo Olympics.
