Ahly coach Mohamed Youssef is waiting for medical reports on Sherif Abdel-Fadil before he decides whether to include the defender in his squad for Saturday's Champions League semifinal against Coton Sport.

Abdel-Fadil is suffering a problem with his calf muscle that forced him to be substituted during Sunday's friendly against El-Dakheleya.

Team doctor Ehab Ali will decide on Wednesday whether Abdel-Fadil can be included in the squad.

Midfielder Walid Soliman and defender Ahmed Fathi are recovering from minor injuries and are ready for the game.

The Red Devils are heading to Cameroon on Wednesday evening for the first leg of their CAF Champions League semifinal against Coton Sport.
