Reda Abdel-Aal..the trend maker

The statements of former Egyptian football star Reda Abdel Aal are often associated with the description of “fireworks” on many occasions.

In the decisive tournaments, Reda Abdel-Aal, the former star of Al-Ahly and Zamalek, announces his predictions and reveals his expectations, which often raise controversy.

One shot that made Rad Abdel Aal among the footballing guests on television screens, coinciding with the approach of the Egyptian national team to obtaining the right to organize the 2019 African Nations Championship.

Reda Abdel-Aal came out in defiance to declare it explicitly, “I tell you, Egypt will graduate from the African Cup of Nations,” which happened later in the final price round, with a 0-1 defeat once morest South Africa in a big surprise.

Perhaps from that moment, the train of statements by Reda Abdel-Aal, the former player and coach, and who is currently the “trend maker”, was launched.

Since he was a player with controversy, Reda Abdel-Aal’s career.. From the Nile Pharmaceutical Club, he set foot on the field of stadiums, then moved to Zamalek in a move that changed the direction of his life, in the nineties of the last century.

He played 6 consecutive seasons with Zamalek, during which he starred inside the White Castle and gave it his passion and football stardom, and became the club’s first net star.

But in moments, he decided to turn the table, stir up a storm in the sports community, and committed a sin that the football fans might not forgive, as he moved to his traditional rival, Al-Ahly Club, so that his name became associated with causing a great uproar that does not end until the moment.

Reda Abdel-Aal only played one match with the Egyptian national team, which was in the qualifiers for the 1990 World Cup, under the leadership of the late veteran coach Mahmoud El-Gohary, and following years of silence, he went out to attack the late general that he had deliberately not included him in the team despite the brightness of his star at the time.

The situation remained in him, so he returned once more to attack Mahmoud El-Gohary, accusing him of pushing the Egyptian masses to chant his name.

Provoking controversy has become the destination of Reda Abdel Aal.. He does not lose sight of how he grabs attention, sometimes with actions, as he once put a mask on his eye during the period of the spread of the Corona virus, and other times with his statements

In 1999, Reda Abdel-Aal’s career as a player ended, turning a page full of brilliance and failure, and certainly with the endless noise.

Reda Abdel-Al went through a different stage in the world of football, but it took him to a vicious circle, as he led several teams in the second division league, such as Bahtim, Sohag, Bani Obaid, Zarqa, Nabarouh, Damanhour, Military Production, Shebin Republic, El-Mahalla Municipality.

For 4 consecutive seasons, he led the Tanta team, but an unfortunate end came to that station when he failed to rise to the Premier League, to be sacked, and then head to the Republic of Shebin and then Damanhour.

There are many teams and the result is the same.. dismissal or resignation, due to failure and failure to win.. Despite this, Reda Abdel Aal makes statements expressing his dreams of leading the Egyptian national team to qualify for the World Cup, or achieving the Egyptian League and Egyptian Cup titles if he takes over the task of training a team with potential.

Away from the green rectangle, Reda Abdel-Aal knew another way in which he might reap success and become “Number One” as he wished.. a mixture he invented to become the hero of the image, and within the shares of “Trend Today”, with permanent mockery and attack on players and coaches, whether in Egypt or abroad.

Sometimes he underestimates Cristiano Ronaldo, the world football legend, and considers him just strong muscles without talent, or he laments the genius of veteran Spanish coach Pep Guardiola.

Reda Abdel-Aal does not hesitate to pay the sharp criticism, as he explicitly goes out on television programs to say, “All Egypt’s coaches are slanderers, and I am the first of them.” He is asked regarding the best football plan for the White Castle, and he invents the 4-1-3-1 method.

Perhaps this method has paid off. After the failures of the stadiums, the word “what you hear” has become the destination.. In moments, “trend” becomes the owner of fiery statements that are not extinguished by the results of a match. On the contrary, it becomes more inflamed the more it becomes a main Alex Reed on television screens and social networking sites.
