Interviewed by Mustafa Al-Greetly:
A video clip, which is a summary of his contact with the 2003 team at the Arab Contractors Club, lasting about ten minutes, was enough to convince the officials of the Portuguese team Sporting de Lisboa to send an invitation to live with the club of contractors in relation to his forward Youssef Hassan.
Islam Al-Shahat, the agent for the 17-year-old, finds it not surprising that Sporting Lisbon officials are convinced of the “jewel of the new contractors”, according to his statement to Masrawy: “Hassan scores with his youth team at a high pace; sometimes more than 20 goals per season and sometimes more than 30 goals.Has a strong physical build and is good at playing with his left foot, despite being (right-handed), in addition to his speed and ability to play both sides of the stadium and face the goal directly. “
These are the characteristics that prompted him to work with his partner, Abdul Rahman Ismail, to address more than one European club about his 18-year-old player in June 2021: “We devised a plan for his professionalism and contacted more than one European club, but the Corona period delayed the matter a bit until the offer from Sporting Lisbon arrived. They want it next February, and as soon as this period passes they will negotiate with the contractors to include it in the next season, which begins approximately in August 2021.
It is the month that will solve the crisis that Youssef Hassan faced, as he received Greek offers from the main clubs when he was 15 years old: “He traveled with his team to a friendly tournament in Greece and scored 11 goals in 5 games to be named tournament scorer. which included teams such as: PAOK, Olympiacos, Feyenoord of the Netherlands and other clubs that have his name, which made him the center of attention of several clubs, but being under 18 years old, he would not be made a professional contract for the labor law regulations in Europe, which was not a hindrance for his colleague Bilal Abdul Rahman Mazhar, who had European citizenship, so he has the right to sign a contract, so in August he will be 18 years old. “
Youssef, who was included in the youth ranks from the age of 10 until he was promoted to the first team, who was 16 years old, after the Greek friendly tournament in 2018, was not the focus of attention of the European clubs: “Rather, the Al-Ahly and Pyramids officials officially contacted his club, the Arab Contractors, to join him during the summer transfer period. “But it has been decided to stick with the contractors and work towards bringing them a professional contract. The contractors want to repeat the climbing experience that has emerged for the first equipment that can be easily marketed in Europe, which is what is happening now.”
And these are the things that encouraged Emad Al-Nahhas, the technical director of the contractors team, to push him in the last season 2019/2020, accompanied by the first team, even though he had not turned 18: “After the Corona period, he participated in friendlies with the contractors and scored a goal in the first game and fought with them several games, as well as in the current 2020/2021 season he participated in the Confederation and gained more confidence ”.
Imad Al-Nahhas was not the only one in Egypt who caught his eye “the jewel of contractors,” as his agent called it. Rather, he was the player who was born in 2003 into Egypt’s youth team, born in 2001, who traveled to Tunisia under the leadership of Rabie Yassin to participate in the North African Championship before the national team was excluded. Due to the coronavirus infections that hit their ranks: “The matter did not stop. Youssef was present when he was two years their junior, so the next generation will join them as well, and we are currently working on preparing his roles. traveling to Sporting Lisboa in February in coordination with the Contractors Department “.
