Exclusive: Mohamed Salah makes surprise appearance in Egypt hours before an English Premier League game

Egypt is set to open the Grand Egyptian Museum today in a landmark event attended by several world leaders and dignitaries. The massive complex, located near the Pyramids of Giza, is officially the largest museum in the world dedicated to ancient Egyptian civilization, housing over 50,000 artifacts that showcase the country’s rich and diverse history.

In a surprising twist, Pan Africa Football has learned that Egyptian superstar Mohamed Salah, the Liverpool forward, was in Egypt in the recent hour to film a special video message that will be broadcast during the opening ceremony.

The timing of Salah’s involvement has raised curiosity, as the Liverpool talisman is scheduled to play against Aston Villa later this evening in the English Premier League’s Matchday 10 fixture.

The Grand Egyptian Museum’s opening marks a historic cultural moment for Egypt, symbolizing the fusion of ancient heritage with modern global presence — and Salah’s participation adds yet another touch of pride for the Egyptian people.
