Timeline
He returned for Ajax against Vitesse, coming on as a substitute in the 75th minute.
Ahmed Hossam Hussein Abdelhamid Wasfi (أحمد حسام حسين عبد الحميد وصفي; born 23 February 1983), publicly known as Mido (ميدو), is an Egyptian football manager and former player who played as a striker.
Mido started his career with Zamalek in Egypt in 1999.
Mido started his career with Egyptian Premier League club Zamalek in 1999.
He left the club for Gent of Belgium in 2000, where he won the Belgian Ebony Shoe.
He made his league debut on 22 May 2000 in a 0–0 draw against El Qanah.
The next week, Mido scored his first two goals against Aluminium Nag Hammâdi, which Zamalek won 3–2.
His African debut came on 28 May 2000, in a 2–1 win against Ethiopian Coffee, making the aggregate score 3–3, which led to the game being decided on penalties.
Zamalek eventually reached the 2000 African Cup Winners' Cup final, beating Cameroonian side Canon Yaoundé 4–3 on aggregate.
Mido's performances eventually attracted interest from Belgian club Gent.
In 2000, at the age of 17, Mido signed for Gent.
Initially, he suffered from homesickness, and returned to Egypt shortly after arriving in Belgium, only staying at his father's vehement insistence.
Working hard to fight his reservations, Mido eventually overcame them, in his own words gaining "the mentality of a pro".
Gent manager Patrick Remy was impressed by Mido's handling of the issue and promoted him to the first team in September 2000, placing him at first on the substitutes' bench.
However, Mido continued to impress Remy, who commented on his "responsibilities ... [and] great technical capabilities".
He eventually became a first-team regular, and made his league debut on 27 August 2000 in a 4–1 away win against Eendracht Aalst.
On 2 October 2000, he scored his first goal in a 2–1 home win against Standard Liège.
His European debut came on 12 September 2000, where Gent suffered a 6–0 home defeat to Ajax.
He became a fan favourite, and was praised by the Belgian press at the end of the season.
This led to a move to Dutch side Ajax in 2001, from where he joined Celta Vigo on loan in 2003.
Mido went on to win the Belgian Ebony Shoe in 2001 as the best African player in the Belgian First Division, as well as being named the Belgian "Discovery of the Year".
As he attracted interest from major clubs both in Belgium and abroad, he ended the season with a powerful performance against Royal Antwerp, scoring one of Gent's goals in a 3–1 win and setting up the other two.
Two years later, Remy described the match to an Egyptian journalist, saying that "Mido did everything."
He finished the season with 11 goals from 21 matches, as Gent finished fifth, earning them a spot in the following season of the UEFA Intertoto Cup.
After his success in Belgium with Gent, Mido signed a five-year contract with Eredivisie team Ajax in 2001.
He suffered a concussion during their UEFA Cup match with Limassol, after colliding with a defender.
He made his return for the team against Heerenveen, a match which Ajax lost 5–1.
However, he was sent off against Twente, after kicking Spira Grujić whilst trying to beat him to the ball, for which he was later given a three-match ban.
Mido scored in Ajax's victory over Utrecht in the KNVB Cup final, meaning he ended the 2001–02 season with the Dutch League and Cup double.
He played for only 32 minutes against Groningen, after a display which lacked creativity.
He said afterwards he was tired and was carrying a slight injury during the match, but Koeman criticised Mido saying he was not giving everything.
He failed to be selected for the substitutes bench against Feyenoord in March 2002, which was due to a minor clash with manager Ronald Koeman, and Mido left for a short vacation in Cairo.
His next destination was Marseille in France and he left them for Italian side Roma in 2004.
He joined English side Tottenham Hotspur on an 18-month loan in 2005 and eventually joined the club permanently in 2006.
He left the club in 2007 to join Middlesbrough, from whom he joined Wigan Athletic, Zamalek, West Ham United and Ajax on loan.
In 2011, he rejoined Zamalek, before joining Barnsley in 2012.
He also played for Egypt 51 times, scoring 20 goals.
Mido retired from football in June 2013.
