Defending champions Ahly have received a triple boost ahead of their league game against Masry on Tuesday.

French coach Patrice Carteron was able to welcome back in his squad international left back Ahmed Fathi, captain Hossam Ashour and gifted winger Walid Soliman, all of whom had been recovering from injuries.
