Ibrahim Hassan

Hassan retired at almost 40 years of age, going on to have a spell as assistant manager in former team El-Masry, where his brother would also start his coaching career in 2008. In 2010, after a brief spell as assistant manager with Zamalek, he became the club’s director of football.

Hassan played 125 games and scored 12 goals for Egypt for almost 20 years, as Hossam. He appeared for the national team at the 1990 FIFA World Cup, helping it to two draws and a narrow 0–1 defeat against England. His brother was also an undisputed starter, as the pair became the first players from Africa to be selected to FIFA’s Century Club. However Ibrahim Hassan remains the only Egyptian footballer who made the FIFA world team selection (three times) and in fact played twice on two separate occasions in 1990 & 1999 against Bosnia and South Africa respectively
