Attram De Visser’s Hafiz Ibrahim joins Egyptian Premier Side El Gouna FC
In a move that signals ambition and potential, 22-year-old midfielder Hafiz Ibrahim has completed a transfer from Ghana’s Attram De Visser Sporting Club to Egyptian Premier League side El Gouna FC.
The deal sees Ibrahim join El Gouna on a six-month loan, with an option for the club to make the transfer permanent.
Affectionately known as "The General," Ibrahim's skilful displays and composure on the ball have impressed many, earning him a call-up to the Black Galaxies, Ghana’s home-based senior national team, for their CHAN playoff games against Nigeria in December 2024.
Ibrahim has made a name for himself with his commanding presence on the pitch, bringing a blend of creativity and tenacity to El Gouna’s midfield. His nickname, "The General," is a testament to his leadership qualities and his ability to orchestrate play from the heart of the field. Known for his vision and passing range, he is expected to add significant value to El Gouna’s squad as they navigate the challenges of the Egyptian Premier League.
Having honed his skills at Attram De Visser, a club renowned for nurturing young talents in Ghana, Ibrahim now steps onto a new stage where he will face different tactical setups and the physical demands of North African football. His move to El Gouna FC is not just a personal milestone but also a source of motivation for young Ghanaian players aspiring to pursue careers abroad.
El Gouna Football Club, based in the resort town of the same name on the Red Sea, has been working towards establishing itself more firmly among Egypt’s football elite. The acquisition of Hafiz Ibrahim is seen as part of their strategy to build a competitive team capable of challenging for top honours. The club’s decision to include an option to buy at the end of the loan period demonstrates their confidence in Ibrahim’s ability to make an immediate impact.
Ibrahim’s transition to the Egyptian top flight will be keenly watched by fans and pundits alike. His experience in Ghana’s domestic league and his adaptability will be crucial as he looks to make his mark in a league known for its passionate fanbase and competitive nature.
As "The General" prepares to take command in El Gouna’s midfield, all eyes will be on how quickly he can adapt to his new environment and whether he can help propel El Gouna to new heights. This move marks an exciting chapter in Ibrahim’s career—one that could potentially set the stage for further international recognition.
