Samir will most probably make his debut with the Red Devils after joining from Tersana few days ago.
Ahli snapped up the 24-year-old to have a back-up for star Mohamed Abou-Treika, who also arrived from Tersana in 2004.
Hossam Ashour has been named after recovering from minor bruises he suffered after being involved in a car crash.
Right back Islam Al-Shater will regain his place in Ahli’s starting line-up after recovering from an injury lay-off.
The absence of six regulars due to international duty paved the way for young trio Mohamed Mahmoud ‘Nano’, Mohamed Hegazi ‘Mando’ and Abdullah Farouk to break through.
The full squad:
Goalkeepers: Amir Abdul-Hamid, Ahmed Abdul-Monem
Defenders: Mohamed Samir, Emad Al-Nahhas, Rami Adel, Islam Al-Shater, Ahmed Shedid, Ahmed Adel, Ahmed Sedik
Midfielders: Mahmoud Samir, Hossam Ashour, Moataz Eno, Nano, Abdullah Farouk
Strikers: Ahmed Belal, Osama Hosni, Reda Al-Weeshi, Abdul-Hamid Hassan, Mando
