What did Walid Suleiman do with Al-Ahly of Egypt.. and the most prominent reasons for his retirement from football

Weather of Arabia - Al-Ahly will conclude its matches in the Egyptian League this evening, Tuesday, by facing Ceramica Cleopatra in the last 34th round of the local competition, in which it ranked third.

Walid Suleiman was absent from Al-Ahly's list for the Ceramica match with an injury, and therefore he will not be able to make a final official appearance in the red team shirt, before he officially retires from football.

Walid Suleiman (37 years old) announced last February his retirement from football at the end of the current season 2021/2022, to be his last with Al-Ahly after an 11-year career in the Red Castle.

The announcement of Walid Suleiman's retirement came after Al-Ahly won the bronze medal in the Club World Cup for the third time in the club's history.

In this report, "Al-Ain Sports" reviews the most prominent features of "Al-Hawi" Walid Suleiman's career in the Al-Ahly shirt.

What did Walid Suleiman do with Al-Ahly?

Al-Ahly’s contract with Walid Suleiman came during the month of Ramadan, specifically in the summer of 2011, after the club obtained the player’s services from the ranks of Enppi for 8 million pounds, and at the time signed a contract linking him to the Red Castle for a period of four years.

The deal shed a lot of ink during this period, especially since the player was also of interest by traditional rivals Zamalek, but Al-Ahly's insistence and the player's desire prevented him from moving to the White Castle.

There was a great desire on the part of Walid Suleiman to realize his dream of moving to Al-Ahly, and the matter came to put pressure on the officials of Enppi and the Egyptian Ministry of Petroleum, until he ended up in the hospital, affected by a health problem from the severity of fatigue.

How many goals scored by Walid Suleiman with Al-Ahly?

Indeed, Walid Suleiman was in good faith, and he became a key participant in the team’s crowning with 21 local and African championships, led by the African Champions League (4 titles), in addition to the bronze in the World Cup clubs twice,

The veteran player also remains a distinctive scoring weapon, as he scored 75 goals and assisted more than 50, in more than 300 matches he played in all competitions, at a time when he was the top scorer of the current generation of Al-Ahly players in African championships.
