Mostafa Saad Abdallah Sayed (Arabic: مصطفي سعد عبد الله سيد; born 22 August 2001) is an Egyptian professional footballer who plays as a winger for Smouha, on loan from Al Ahly.

Club career

In September 2022, Saad signed for Al Ahly on a five-year deal.[2] He suffered an injury shortly after joining Al Ahly, keeping him out for three weeks and disrupting his integration into the first team.[3] Despite this injury, manager Marcel Koller promised Saad in November 2022 that he would receive more game time.[4]

In January 2023, Saad asked to leave Al Ahly on loan, due to a lack of playing time, with a number of Egyptian Premier League sides interested, including former club Ceramica Cleopatra.[5][6] He was eventually loaned to Smouha, thanking manager Ahmed Samy for giving him his debut against ENPPI, despite not yet having trained with the squad.[3]

International career

Saad has represented Egypt at under-23 level.[7]

Style of play

Saad is nicknamed Messi after Argentine playmaker Lionel Messi, due to the two sharing a similar stature and style of play.[8]
