Zaki will link up with Middlesbrough player Mido for the international squad and both are on fire for their clubs at the moment with 7 goals between them, Mido almost became a Latics player last week when a deal was offered to Boro for the player but Boro turned it down, much to Mido`s disgust.

Egypt finish the group stage off with a game against Djibouti on 12th October 2008 in Cairo
