Esteemed GOAL Arabia journalist Mahmoud Diaa Previews Mohamed Salah’s Egypt Ahead of 2019 AFCON

Dean Perretta: Lastly, other than Egypt, which nations do you feel will make a strong push to legitimately contend for the Africa Cup of Nations title this summer and why?


Mahmoud Diaa: Morocco and Senegal are at the top of this list. Two teams with many stars, who have developed strongly over the past years, have trainers at the highest level in a long time. The Cameroonian’s cannot be ignored with Tunisia. Both of them can compete for the title but Morocco and Senegal remain the top two candidates (to win the 2019 Africa Cup of Nations).
