Amr Zaki assures all his fans that he has not been
dropped from the Lokomotiv team, but that it has been
an injury problem that has stopped him from featuring
and nothing else. He adds that he doesn't regret his
decision of moving to Russia; he has simply been unlucky
due to an injury which has come back to haunt him three
years after an operation.
"As far as my situation is concerned, I had an
injury in my knee as soon as I went to Russia,"
revealed Amr Zaki to EgyptianPlayers.com.
"I had the injury since I was with the national
team," he added.
"After that I returned to light training - running
round the pitch for example - for around 15 days, but
got an injury again in my thigh.

"It was a problem I had three years ago when I had to
have an operation in my knee. Now, the medical staff say I
have to undergo the operation again and it will take two and
a half to three months for me to return to the pitch."
Amr Zaki stressed that he does not regret his move but that
injury has been the problem stopping him from playing, indicating
that even if he went to England he would have been in the
same situation. "I'm like any player and I got an injury.
Does any injured player play?
"I haven't taken part in anything with the team because
of injury. As soon as I went [to Lokomotiv] I got injured.
"I tried to pressure myself to play but I have to do
the operation. That's why the club gave me a holiday."
Zaki has had some trouble with communication in Russia due
to the language problem, as well as the different climate.
He does however want to tell his fans on EP that he will be
back and playing as soon as he can.
"Send my regards to everyone at EP," he said.
"I went on the net and saw different news each time in
papers and media which aren't at all true.
"It's hard to find out Russian news in Egypt and it's
hard for me to give you updates if nobody calls me. Keep calling
me (EP) so everyone can keep up-to-date
