Mustafa Mohamed ... Salah is on the horizon

A beneficial, harmful god, as applies to the Egyptian star Mustafa Mahmoud, after the failure of Saint Etienne's French efforts to sign him, Zamalek's scorer compass turned to the Turkish Galatasaray, to achieve a great start that prompted many to compare his beginnings with the European path of his fellow star Mohamed Salah.

Four matches, 314 minutes: 4 goals!

Mostafa Mohamed became the first Egyptian professional to score in four consecutive matches at the start of his new career in various competitions, breaking the former Al-Ahly legend Saleh Selim's 62-63 season with his Austrian team Grazer, according to Egyptian media, and the comparisons between him and Salah were not delayed.

Salah started his career in the Swiss League with Basel from Arab contractors, before making his way to stardom, becoming the best African player and a contender for the Golden Ball for the best player in the world in the ranks of Liverpool, after several stages that he made with Chelsea, Fiorentina and Rome, the Italians.

The ebb and flow of recent weeks and accusations by Saint Etienne's administration for some Zamalek officials of requesting a commission angered the White Castle management, so Mustafa’s path shifted from a team that embraced former star Michel Platini to the Istanbul Lions, colored in yellow and red.

Zamalek later confirmed that Muhammad’s destination is Galatasaray, and that his contract includes obtaining two million dollars in cash after completing the deal.

Galatasaray will obtain the player's contract in the event that his purchase clause is finally activated for 4 million dollars, provided that this clause will be activated no later than December 31, 2021. The twenty-third son was not late in his failure to create after a period of tension in which he repeatedly expressed in his social media accounts About his desire to work in Europe.

Mustafa Mahmoud scored a penalty kick for his third team's goal against Basaksehir (3-0), then the winning goal against the historic opponent, Fenerbahçe (1-0), with a beautiful creeping shot from the edge of the area after tampering with the defense.

And then reduced the difference during the loss to Alanya Sport at home (2-3) in the quarter-finals of the Cup, then scored the winning goal from a penalty kick in the penultimate minute on Sunday against Kassem Pasha, after he contributed with a strong header in scoring the first goal (2-1).

Classic No.9

Mustafa Mahmoud became the first player to score in the first three consecutive league matches since Frenchman Pavitimbi Gomes, the current Saudi striker of Al Hilal, in 2017. His new coach, Fateh Terim, carries a heavy football legacy.

"Mustafa Mohamed plays well. It is important that we keep the ball in our possession in order to go forward and attack, and Mustafa does this job well," said the 67-year-old after the last victory.

Ibn Giza, whom Zamalek loaned to the interior, Tanta and the army, before his arrival to Galatasaray two weeks ago, became the expected star to carry the torch of his countryman Salah.

"It is very important that he continues his work seriously and not be satisfied with what he has. He has all the capabilities to play in the best clubs in the world," said his compatriot Ahmed Houssem Mido, the striker of Ajax, Marseille, France, and Tottenham.

Mido, who also carried the colors of Zamalek, added, "The classic number 9, which plays with his head as a station like Mustafa and a spearhead inside the region, has begun to disappear. If he remains in a position and physically fit, he can play in the best clubs in the world."

He praised Mido for his mental ability to adapt to the new atmosphere, "playing under the snow in an atmosphere he is not familiar with and recording at the last minute. He has forced his critics to change their opinion of him."
