Career[]

Salah left Zamalek SC on 1 July 2013, having played for the club in five years.^[1] He plays usually as a Defensive Midfielder, although he may be converted into a Winger when needed. In February 2014, Salah was linked to a move to Sheffield United^[2] but rejoined Zamalek in April 2014, ending a one-year spell at the Saudi club Al-Orobah.^[3]

Salah scored his first international goal in the friendly against Uganda 3-0 victory on 14 August 2013.^[4]

In 2016 he joined Smouha SC on loan scoring 20 goals in 17 appearances.

He has since found goalscoring form for Zamalek scoring 30 in his first season back for the club.

After this clinical return to form many teams were vying for his signature but it was the prestigious Arab Contractors FC who won the race for his signature. In 2019 he signed a 4 year contract extension with the club.
