The shirt with the biggest name in African football on the back

Egypt missed Qatar 2022 and the football world groaned. Salah at his peak with no World Cup felt cruel. They have not let it happen twice — the Pharaohs are back in 2026 and the kit is going to be everywhere.

The design

Classic red Puma home shirt with black-and-white trim along the collar and cuffs, paired with white shorts. Heritage feel, modern cut. The pyramid-inspired shoulder texture is subtle enough to age well but distinctive enough to stand out on the shelf.

Who to watch

Mohamed Salah obviously — the Liverpool legend gets his World Cup moment. Omar Marmoush providing real pace alongside him, Mostafa Mohamed offering a different option up top. Trezeguet and Mohamed Hamdy fill out an experienced spine.

Why you should care

Group G with Belgium, Iran and New Zealand is genuinely open. Salah versus De Bruyne in a group game is one of the headline fixtures of the entire group stage. The Egypt shirt with #10 SALAH on the back is a pre-tournament must-buy.
