Zamalek will determine Shikabala's availability for Thursday's league clash with Gaish on Monday, the club said on their official site. The 23-year-old has been struggling with a groin injury since last month's 2-2 draw with Arab Contractors. But new coach Henri Michel is hopeful to regain the services of the influential playmaker, who trained with his teammates on Sunday. Shikabala will undergo a fitness test with Zamalek chief medic Mostafa Al-Monayeri on Monday night and has a good chance of facing Gaish. Zamalek, who beat Ittihad 1-0 last week, are in third place on seven points, three behind leaders Ahli.
