the beginning
“I started with the junior team and the football school in Fayoum Club. I was chosen to play with the junior team after starring in the northern Upper Egypt team. Born in 1977 under the leadership of Hilmi Tolan. The coach who nominated me to Zamalek witnessed me through the Ibrahim Ibrahim and Mahmoud Al-Khawaja duo.”
“Indeed, I joined the club of Zamalek and I am 15 years old and we were participating in the Giza District League led by the late Ibrahim Youssef, the coach of the team.”
“At that time, I was the top scorer for the junior teams in the club, and I was a player with the generation that included Abdel Wahid Al Sayed, Tariq Al Sayed, Tariq Al Saeed, Ayman Abdel Aziz, and in 1997 after the era of the Dream Team in Zamalek, a large number of youngsters escalated to participate with the first team, accompanied by Dutch coach Rod Kroll, and I was Among these players, I was 17 years old.
“I was also part of the Zamalek mission, which traveled to play a match in Palestine and met the late President Yasser Arafat.”
“I have continuously participated with the older youth team from me thanks to the giants Ibrahim Youssef, Abdul Rahim Mohamed, Ghanem Sultan and Medhat Makki, the youth team coaches at the club at the time.”
“I also trained with the first team, led by Rod Kroll, Farouk Jaafar, Hilmi Tolan and Autovester.”
“In the 1999/2000 season match, I was on the bench of Zamalek and won its time against Al-Ahly with a double, Bashir Al-Tabei and Sumaila Coulibaly, and scored for the red team Alaa Ibrahim.”
“I also participated in the game of retirement of the star Ashraf Qassem.”
Shock
“At that time, I was preparing to include my name in the first team list in 2000, accompanied by coach Autofester after providing a good level in the friendly matches before the start of the season. The gentle. “
“And the technical staff began preparing me to be the fifth striker in the first team after this group of names, especially as I was very young.”
“But surprisingly, Zamalek signed a contract with Hossam Hassan in the famous deal, so that the opportunity for my participation with the first team was zero, so that Zamalek decided to dispense with me.”
“I held a session with Ismail Salim and told me that there was a Kuwaiti offer to join me on loan, but I decided to leave for free to Ghazl al-Mahalla with Farouq Ja`far, despite another offer from me from Ismaili, and I played two seasons with Mahalla.”
Beyond Zamalek
With Al-Mahalla, she achieved fourth place in the league and runner-up to the Egypt Cup, losing to Al-Ahly, and participated with the team in the African Championship and scored 8 goals in the league and 5 in the Egypt Cup. “.
“I left Al Mahalla to the border guards with Hilmi Tolan and in the middle of the season she took part in the ranks of the Turkish Gogo team.”
Top scorer for the Turkish League
“In Turkey, I scored 8 goals in my first matches with my team and I was the top scorer in the Turkish League for a while, but I did not join the Egyptian team at the time, led by Mohsen Saleh.”
“I think the reason I did not join the national team during this period despite my brilliance in Turkey was because I refused the Ismaili offer in 2000 and preferred to work with Faruq Jaafar in Mahalla because of my strong relationship with him, but Mohsen Saleh thought I preferred the camp to Ismaili.”
“During this period, many fans marveled about not joining the national team, but after the departure of Mohsen Saleh and the arrival of the Italian Tardelli, I joined the Pharaohs in more than one camp, but he quickly left.”
“Then I moved to the Istanbul Sport team and scored 21 goals with him, and after 3 seasons with professionalism in Turkey, I decided to return to the border guards again.”
“At the time, I was close to joining the ranks of the German Hansa Rostock, to whom Muhammad Emara and Yasser Radwan were playing, but my lack of international participation was a reason for not completing the contract.”
“If I participated in the national team continuously during this period, such as Ahmed Hassan and Abdel-Zahir Al-Saqqa, my career in Turkey would have lasted for a longer period of time, and with the top clubs there.”
“The media was promoting at the time the weakness of the Turkish League and that my goals there are easy, but the opposite was true, because the competition was very strong, and the proof of this is that Turkey won the 2002 World Cup bronze.”
Return to the Egyptian League
“After returning to Egypt and joining the border guards, I participated with the team in the African Championship, and then I went on loan to Tanta classes with coach Mohamed Salah.”
“From Tanta to the Arab contractors with Alaa Nabil for two seasons, and after that I received an offer from the second-class financial Kafr El-Zayat, but I preferred to retire while I was 32.”
The reason for the disappearance and the training work
“The media caused me to disappear from view due to the lack of highlighting me, then the revolution and after that I traveled to Saudi Arabia and worked in the field of training for 3 seasons, and then I returned to Egypt again and work in training between the second and third clubs.”
“I worked in the clubs of Abshway, Tameyah Youth Center, Al-Sahah, Menia Al-Heit, Sinnuras, Abu Tig, and Nasser Youth Center, and currently I lead the third division with the Ras Gharib workers team.”
“But training requires strong relationships and I try to strive to achieve my ambitions.”
