Afcon: Aguirre - I will definitely leave if I don't achieve Egypt's target

Egypt manager Javier Aguirre has claimed his side are ready for the Africa Cup of Nations (Afcon), scheduled to start on June 21.

The experienced Mexican manager is upbeat after the arrival of talisman Mohamed Salah in their squad.

“We are ready for the Afcon and the team is complete now with Salah’s arrival, everyone has to acknowledge that the players are fully concentrated especially due to hosting the tournament,” Aguirre told gathered reporters.

“We don’t think about anything right now except for the opening game against Zimbabwe. I am only focused on the tournament and I am bound to the Egyptian Football Association with a contract.
