Mohamed Abdel Shafy (Arabic: محمد عبد الشافي; born 1 July 1985) is an Egyptian professional footballer who plays as a left back for Egyptian Premier League club Zamalek and the Egypt national team.
Club career
He started his career with Zamalek youth team then moved to ENPPI then moved to Ghazl El-Mehalla. He joined Zamalek's squad again in 2009.
International career
Abdel Shafy was called to join the Egypt national football team on 31 December 2009.[2] In what was a surprise to some, the Egyptian team coach, Hassan Shehata, listed Abdel Shafy among the players heading to Angola for the 2010 Africa Cup of Nations. Abdel Shafy became a substitute for Sayed Moawad in this tournament, and managed to participate in 5 matches.[3] He grabbed his first goal for Egypt in the 4–0 semi-final win against Algeria.[4]
In May 2018 he was named in Egypt’s preliminary squad for the 2018 World Cup in Russia.[5]
