Date of Birth: 18.10.2005 (19)
Position: Right Winger
Club: Ahly SC
National Team: Egypt

Profile & Role

Left-footed winger who naturally plays on the right side to cut inside onto his stronger foot towards goal. Typologically, he fits the profile of a modern inverted winger: seeks the ball between the lines, attacks the half-space, accelerates play with his first touch and vertical/progressive decision-making. At youth and U20 level, he has been profiled as a player with strong attacking instincts and potential to break into Al Ahly’s first team.

Technical Skills

First touch & body orientation: receives under pressure, opens up on the “open foot,” and immediately looks for a vertical solution; often speeds up the attack with one touch.

Ball carrying & 1v1: carries the ball effectively in full sprint; change of pace and short burst over the first 5–10 meters allow him to create overloads in the right half-space.

Dribbling & feints: uses short, efficient moves (drop-shoulder, stop-go) – more functional than aesthetic.

Passing & finishing: naturally looks for the in-swing cross or cutback to the edge of the box; when cutting inside onto his left foot, he seeks mid-range shots.

Game acceleration: makes quick decisions; pass or dribble forward in 2–3 touches – his rhythm is “vertical,” with no unnecessary contacts.

Physical & Mental Attributes

Explosiveness & agility: good first step and change of direction; easily “escapes” duels after receiving.

Balance in contact: although not a “power” profile, he is stable enough to withstand contact and continue the action.

Endurance: maintains intensity through repeated sprints (re-engages quickly after a second ball).

Mentality: direct and confident in 1v1 situations; shows composure in front of goal for his age.

Tactical Habits

Positioning off the ball: patiently stays wide to pin the full-back and open space for the overlapping full-back/“8,” then attacks the space behind the defender when the play rotates.

Half-space movement: likes to cut inside to create triangles with the “10” and striker; recognizes the moment for the cutback pass.

Defensive transition: disciplined in pressing triggers – closes inside passing lanes and channels opponents toward the touchline; recovery runs quick enough to prevent counters.

Strengths

  • Left-footed inverted winger – valuable profile due to inside threat (shooting/passing) and “in-swing” delivery.
  • Accelerates possession – quick decisions, progressive mindset.
  • 1v1 ability and space attacking – creates overloads through dribbling or timely runs behind the line.
  • Development projection – already in Al Ahly’s orbit and national youth setup; European interest has been mentioned in media.

Areas for Development

  • Final third decision-making: standardize quality of end product after cutting inside (cutback vs. shot).
  • Back-to-goal play / holding under foul: further work on shielding and micro-balance in contact.
  • Defensive details: maintain consistency in tracking full-backs to the end of actions; avoid late tackles in dangerous zones.

System Compatibility

4-3-3 (right wing, inverted): natural environment – half-space attacking, combinations with advanced “8.”

4-2-3-1 (right AM): positions himself between lines as a secondary creator; looks for “wall pass” and inside shot.

High-pressing systems: mentally prepared for pressing triggers and transitions.
