Egyptian international defender Mohammed Abdel Wahab has died of a heart attack while training with his club, champions Al-Ahly.
The 22-year-old collapsed on the pitch and was immediately transferred to a nearby hospital but resuscitation efforts failed.
The young defender won all national and continental
awards with his Cairo club and was also part of the squad that won the African Cup of Nations in February.
"He did not clash with another player, he just fell to the ground," a club spokesman told the BBC.
Wahab`s death comes three years after Cameroon international midfielder Marc Vivien Foe collapsed and died during a 2003 Confederations Cup semi-final in France.
