Iyad Al-Asqalani is now prepared to contribute to upcoming matches with the Russian club, Rostov.
Having made the transition from the Ismaily Club to Rostov for a fee of $900,000, Iyad Al-Asqalani has officially joined the ranks of the Russian side.
According to reports from FilGoal.com, Iyad Al-Asqalani has fully recuperated from his recent injury and has resumed participation in his team’s group training sessions.
Iyad Al-Asqalani, a defender for the Egyptian Olympic team, is now poised to make his mark with Rostov in their forthcoming matches.
Who is Iyad Al-Asqalani?
A rising star amidst the wealth of talent at Ismaily Club, Iyad Al-Asqalani quickly garnered attention.
His ascent was facilitated by Hamza El-Gamal, where he made his debut appearance in the Egyptian League’s final round against Al-Ittihad Al-Sakandary, marking just the beginning of his tale.
This journey was catalyzed by another figure affiliated with Ismaily, Mahmoud Gaber, the former coach of the youth national team and current director of Ismaily’s youth sector.
Gaber accompanied him during the Under-20 Arab Cup and the Africa U-20 Cup of Nations.
His next step was the Olympic team, where he swiftly made an impact in a friendly against Benin, scoring a header in the third minute.
This performance earned him his first professional contract with Ismaily.
Finally, during the international break in June, Iyad Al-Asqalani seized the opportunity to train with the senior national team.
He was among six players who trained under the guidance of Roy Vitoria for two days, marking the initial steps towards a promising future.
