Club career

Born in England to Egyptian parents, Ahmed's performances for a local amateur side caught the attention of Premier League sides Everton, Manchester City and Liverpool. He accepted an offer from the latter, stating that his decision was influenced by the fact that his idol, Mohamed Salah, played for Liverpool.

He progressed well through Liverpool's academy, and would mark his debut for the under-18 team with a goal against Bournemouth in the FA Youth Cup - bundling the ball into the net after teammate Wellity Lucky's header was initially saved.[2][3]

International career

In February 2022, Ahmed was called up to training camps with the Egyptian youth team.[4]
