Mohamed El Shenawy

Mohamed El-Sayed Mohamed El-Shenawy Gomaa (Arabic: محمد السيد محمد الشناوي جمعة; born 18 December 1988) is an Egyptian professional footballer who plays as a goalkeeper for Egyptian Premier League club Al Ahly, which he captains, and the Egypt national team.

He began his career as a youth player with Al Ahly but was released in 2009, joining Tala'ea El Gaish.

His form during the 2015–16 season, keeping a joint league-high eleven clean sheets in twenty-two appearances, including a run of seven matches without conceding, led his former club Al Ahly to attempt to resign him after attracting the attention of manager Martin Jol.

[5] He rejoined Al-Ahly in July 2016,[4] establishing himself in the first team over Sherif Ekramy after keeping five clean sheets in seven matches during January 2018, including helping the side to a 1–0 victory over Al-Masry in the 2017 Egyptian Super Cup.

[14] Teammate Ekramy and Egyptian team director Ihab Leheta later attempted to persuade him to accept the award as a "historic" prize, but he again refused.
