Arsenal midfielder Mohamed Elneny has been named in the Best XI for the Africa Cup of Nations.
The 29-year-old was one of the first names on the teamsheet for Egypt throughout the tournament as the Pharaohs suffered penalty shootout heartache to Senegal in the final.
Elneny started every game for Egypt en route to the final and played the 120 minutes on three occasions, although he ended the tournament without a goal or assist to his name.
However, Elneny's solid performances in the middle of the park have seen him rewarded with a spot in the star-studded best XI alongside fellow Premier League stars Mohamed Salah, Sadio Mane, Edouard Mendy and Nampalys Mendy.
It remains to be seen if Elneny will be considered for selection in Arsenal's Premier League match with Wolverhampton Wanderers on Thursday, but he has only featured in seven top-flight games this term anyway.
The former Basel man is out of contract at the end of the season and is expected to leave the club this summer, with Newcastle United and various clubs in Turkey linked with a swoop.
