CAIRO: Egypt coach Hassan Shehata has all of his men available for Tuesday’s Nile Basin tournament match with Brundi after Shikabala and Hossam Ghaly shook off respective injuries.
Zamalek forward Shika missed last weekend’s 1-0 win over Uganda through a hamstring strain.
Ahli’s holding midfielder Ghaly missed the Pharaohs’ previous two matches in the friendly competition due to a back problem.
Ismaili’s Abdullah Al-Saied was also declared fit and is expected to make his first appearance in the Nile Basin tournament against Brundi.
Egypt are on top of Group A with six points. They battered Tanzaina 5-1 in the opening match.
The African champions are facing South Africa in a crucial 2012 Nations Cup qualifier in March.
Shehata’s side have collected only one point from their first two qualifying games against Sierra Leone and Niger.
