Mahmoud Manga has completed a permanent transfer from Mansoura SC to WE Sports Club, signing a new contract that runs from 2026-02-08 to 2029-06-30. The defensive midfielder leaves his hometown club to join WE SC in a deal registered as a standard transfer, with the fee officially undisclosed.
The move keeps the 22-year-old in Egyptian football, with WE SC securing one of the more quietly emerging midfielders in the domestic game. While no current market value is listed for the player at the time of the move, previous data from his spell at El Mokawloon SC showed his valuation fluctuating between €75,000 and €125,000 before dropping to zero at Mansoura SC, suggesting he was either acquired on a low-cost or free basis.
Manga’s switch to WE SC continues a rapid rise through the Egyptian club ladder. Born in Mansoura, he came through the ranks at El Mokawloon’s youth setup, stepping up from El Mokawloon U23 to the senior El Mokawloon SC side in a standard transfer during the 23/24 season. After a year there, he moved to Mansoura SC for the 24/25 campaign, again on a standard transfer, before earning this latest move to WE SC ahead of the 25/26 season.
Primarily a defensive midfielder, Manga is listed as a right-footed holding player, operating at the base of midfield. His profile is defined by his role rather than attacking returns, and his position is consistently recorded as “Midfield – Defensive Midfield.” There is no data indicating he regularly features in other roles, underscoring that WE SC have signed him with a clear tactical brief: to protect the back line and offer structure in front of the defence.
All of Manga’s senior club career so far has been in Egypt, and all three clubs in his transfer history—El Mokawloon SC, Mansoura SC and WE SC—compete in the domestic system, with the league information listed as “N/A.” His international profile is equally straightforward: he holds Egyptian nationality and is associated at national level with WE Sports Club, though there is no data confirming senior caps or statistics for the national team.
Market value records from his El Mokawloon spell highlight a volatile early career. His estimated worth climbed from €75,000 to €125,000 in 2024 before dropping to zero by early 2025 at Mansoura SC, likely reflecting contract status or lack of updated valuations rather than a definitive assessment of his ability. Nonetheless, WE SC have acted decisively to secure him on a multi-year agreement, removing any immediate prospect of him becoming a free agent.
The move also closes a brief but significant chapter at Mansoura SC, the club based in his birthplace. Having now left his hometown team for a more prominent organisation in the same country, Manga enters a phase of his career in which his development will be judged at a higher level and under greater scrutiny.
With his contract now officially in place from 2026-02-08 to 2029-06-30, Manga’s task is clear: establish himself as a reliable defensive screen and justify WE SC’s decision to invest in a young, domestically developed midfielder whose trajectory through El Mokawloon and Mansoura has brought him to one of the more ambitious setups in Egyptian football.
