Sherif Ekramy explained his injury to EgyptianPlayers.com as follows: "It started when I felt clicking just under my knee. Then on Friday it happened to me again but I knew I was going to play. They told me it hasn't swollen so it would be no problem. I started to feel it in the match but I played."

"After the match the pain was still there, and yesterday (Wednesday) it happened a third time and it swelled a lot."

"After the check-up, thanks to God, the ligaments are fine. But the outer surface of the kneecap has a swelling."

Ekramy admits his season is over but looks on to next season. "It should take between two and three weeks but for the season is as good as over.

"I don't think it'll affect next season, as either way, I want to play and do well."


Answering whether he has been injured too many times for a keeper this season, the Feyenoord stopper said: "It's not true. In my whole life and career I've only had one injury, six years ago, and apart from that any injuries have been soft. Yes, maybe I've had bad luck this season but inshallah everything will get better."

EP wish Sherif a speedy recovery and to make his mark on European football next season...
