Pyramids assistant coach Mohamed Nagy 'Gedo' has identified Al Ahly as the top contender for the CAF Champions League crown, followed by his own club Pyramids FC and Sudan's Al Hilal. Gedo emphasized that Pyramids are having a strong season on all fronts, making them serious contenders for the trophy.
The former Egypt international stressed the challenges of knockout rounds, which require more focus and tactical discipline than the group stage. Meanwhile, Al Ahly will face Espérance Sportive de Tunis in the quarter-finals, while Pyramids will take on Morocco's AS FAR.
