CAIRO: Junior Agogo is hopeful he could help Zamalek win the CAF Champions League title this season, despite the Whites critical situation in Group A.

Zamalek s 2-2 draw with leaders Ahly means that a second place behind the latter is up for grabs in the group which includes ASEC Mimosas and Dynamos.

The Whites must win at Dynamos in the final group game, hoping that arch-rivals Ahly don’t get beaten at home by ASEC.

However, Agogo, who scored in Sunday s Cairo derby, is still targeting an African title in his first season in Egypt.

I decided to join Zamalek because they are a club with a capacity to win trophies, the Ghanaian international told MTNfootball.com.

I hope to guide Zamalek to win the MTN champions league title this year.

Agogo admitted that he needed time in order to adapt to the Egyptian lifestyle, following his summer move from Nottingham Forrest.

Moreover, the 28-year-old striker declared that injury hampered his start to the new season.

It is a very different world. I needed sometime to settle but I feel more oriented to the Egyptian style of life already, he added.

The reason I did not score many goals is that I also did not play many matches.

I still need some time to gain harmony with my teammates.

I was playing while I am injured and not 100 percent fit.

This affected my game but now I am very good physically and am feeling well.
