EL Kambi to Start in Copa Africa Final

Olympiacos striker Ayoub El Kaabi is expected to start in the Copa Africa final between Senegal and Morocco. The 32-year-old forward has already made five appearances in the tournament, scoring three goals and providing one assist. If Morocco wins the trophy, the celebrations will take place in Rabat, where the final is being held. El Kaabi's presence in the final is important for the Moroccan team, as he is one of their key attackers. At the same time, El Kaabi is in the plans of Olympiacos coach Jose Luis Mendilibar for the match against Bayer Leverkusen. His return date to Greece depends on the outcome of the Copa Africa final.
