Al Ahly are no strangers to the Club World Cup, having recently picked up bronze medals in 2020 and 2023 while Inter will be making their debut at the competition.
Despite boasting the likes of Messi, Suarez, Sergio Busquets and Jordi Alba, El-Shahat says they are going to put up a good fight.
"Messi is one of the best players in the world, along with Cristiano Ronaldo, and facing him will certainly be difficult, not just because of his name, but also because of the strength of his entire team.
"But we will fight and give everything we have to win this difficult match."
He continued, "Our goal as Al Ahly players is to deliver strong performances and continue making history for the club in the Club World Cup.
"We have great ambitions and enough experience to make us believe we can go as far as possible in the tournament."
