Cairo — Egypt international forward Omar Marmoush has expressed unshakeable confidence in the Pharaohs’ ability to dominate African football, boldly declaring that Egypt will win the Africa Cup of Nations (AFCON) before going on to lift the FIFA World Cup.
Speaking in an interview, the Manchester City attacker stated: “Egypt will win the Africa Cup of Nations, without doubt, and then we will go on to win the World Cup.”
Marmoush’s comments reflect the growing belief within the Egyptian camp as the seven-time African champions continue preparations for upcoming continental and global competitions. Egypt, one of Africa’s most decorated football nations, are seeking to reclaim the AFCON title after falling short in recent editions, despite consistently reaching the latter stages.
The 25-year-old forward, who has been in impressive form at club level in Europe, has emerged as a key figure in Egypt’s new generation, providing pace, creativity and goals in attack. His confidence is expected to resonate with teammates and supporters alike, as the Pharaohs aim to blend youthful energy with experience in their quest for silverware.
While winning the World Cup remains an ambitious target for any African nation, Marmoush’s declaration underscores Egypt’s renewed ambition and belief on the international stage, as they look to reassert their dominance in Africa and challenge the world’s elite.
