News Summary:
The Egyptian Football Association (EFA) officially released a statement on April 26, 2026, regarding Mohamed Salah's injury, after the Liverpool forward left a match against Crystal Palace holding the back of his left leg. Previously, on March 8, 2026, the EFA announced its intention to bid for the 2032 or 2036 Africa Cup of Nations, a move that requires state approval and aligns with CAF's new four-year hosting cycle beginning in 2028, also prompting questions about Egypt's stadium infrastructure. Earlier, on January 27, 2026, the EFA's Referees Committee, chaired by Oscar Ruiz, announced referee appointments for three matches in the 16th round of the First Division League "A" (Nile League). This followed the EFA's Coaching Department opening applications on January 24, 2026, for the African Training Diploma to obtain the African A9 license, following the completion of A7. Furthermore, on December 31, 2025, Egypt expressed interest in organizing the 2028 African Nations Cup, set to be the last edition held under the old system before the tournament transitions to a new format.
