Al Ahly have confirmed that South African winger Percy Tau has returned to training after testing positive for Covid-19 in the beginning of the year.
Tau was among five senior players who had tested positive for Covid-19 and subsequently missed their side’s first two games in the newly-formed League Cup.
However, Tau has now returned to full team training and could feature in Al Ahly’s next League Cup match against Al Mokawloon on Friday.
“Percy Tau, Al Ahly forward, returned to the team’s full training session after testing negative for COVID-19,” the club said in a statement on their website.
“Sayed Abdelhafiz, Al Ahly director of football, stated that the player performed a special recovery program for two days, before returning to the team’s full training.
“The Red Eagles are currently preparing for our next game against Al Mokawloon Al Arab in the EPL cup.”
Tau has made a great start to his stint with the Cairo giants, scoring five goals and assisting another in his first eight matches.
