Governor of Gharbia Hisham al-Saeed announced on Sunday that the family of Egyptian football superstar Mohamed Salah have donated LE900,000 to Basyoun General Hospital. Back in October, Salah’s father Salah Ghaly reported that the charity project established by Salah in his home-village Nagrig, Basyoun has been finalized, and will be inaugurated in June. The project includes an Al-Azhar institute and an ambulance unit, both at about LE18 million, according to Ghaly. During an interview with Al-Masry Al-Youm, Ghaly claimed that his son refused to accept any financial assistance with the project. Edited translation from Al-Masry Al-Youm
