Ahmed Shahin: Baladiya complete free transfer for Egyptian central midfielder from Mansoura

Baladiya have completed the signing of Egyptian central midfielder Ahmed Shahin on a free transfer from Mansoura, with the move officially registered to start on 2026-07-01. The 24-year-old joins the Baladiya squad after his contract situation allowed him to move at no cost, with his new deal at the club running until 2026-07-01.

The transfer is confirmed as a permanent move, with Shahin now listed as a Baladiya player. The switch keeps him in Egyptian football, moving from Mansoura to Baladiya, both based in Egypt, and into a team that also competes domestically in a league currently listed as N/A. There is no recorded market value for Shahin in the latest data, meaning the free transfer does not stand against a publicly known valuation.

Shahin arrives as a specialist central midfielder, classified in his main role as “Midfield – Central Midfield”. At 24, and born on 01 Jan 2002, he is entering what is typically regarded as a development peak for midfield players. His nationality is recorded as Egyptian, with Egypt the only listed nationality in his profile.

The move marks a step in his club career from Mansoura to Baladiya, both sides operating within the Egyptian game. The data provided does not list any previous clubs beyond Mansoura, nor does it show experience in foreign leagues, so this transfer continues his trajectory within domestic football rather than abroad. Likewise, there is no recorded league name for either Mansoura or Baladiya, and no details of previous competitions in which he has featured, limiting broader statistical context.

Shahin is also associated with Baladiyat El Mahalla at national-team level in the data, though no caps, goals, or match details are included. There is no information on recent fixtures, specific opponents, scorelines, or individual performances, and no seasonal breakdown of appearances, goals, assists, or disciplinary record. As such, it is not possible to quantify his impact in terms of hard numbers, beyond the fact that he has earned this move as a central midfielder within the Egyptian system.

The transfer being completed on a free also raises the potential future scenario in which Shahin could become a free agent again when his current agreement expires on 2026-07-01, depending on extensions or new offers. For now, the confirmed deal gives Baladiya an additional central option as they look ahead to upcoming domestic campaigns, while providing Shahin with a platform at a new club to further his career within Egyptian football.
