Al Ittihad Alexandria have made a major move in the final stages of the summer transfer window, announcing five new signings in one batch as the club looks to build a stronger squad for the upcoming season.

The latest moves come under head coach Hamza El-Gamal and take the club’s total number of summer signings to 22, highlighting the scale of the squad overhaul carried out by the Alexandrian side.

Five Signings Reshape the Squad

The latest additions include defender Mostafa Awad, formerly of Jordanian side Al-Wehdat, on a three-year contract, while left-back Mazen Osama has joined from Dairout on a four-year deal.

Ittihad Alexandria also strengthened their defense with former Al Ahly defender Moataz Mohamed, who signed for two seasons. Former Zamalek player Anas Wael joined on a five-year contract.

The club completed the latest wave of additions by signing midfielder Mahmoud Emad from National Bank of Egypt on a one-year loan, with a clause allowing a permanent transfer at the end of the season.

The latest deals underline the scale of the changes within the squad. Earlier in the transfer window, the club brought in several players, including Mido Mostafa, Mohamed Fakhry, striker Hossam Hassan, Khaled Massad, Abdel Rahman Hisham and Ahmed El-Shazly, alongside Moamen Awad, Ahmed Hamdy, Ahmed El-Arabi and Ugandan midfielder Kenneth Semakula.

At the same time, several players have left the club, including Karim El-Deeb, Mahmoud Shabana, goalkeeper Mahmoud Abdel Rahim “Gennesh,” Abdel Ghany Mohamed, Amr Khalil, Amr Gomaa, Mohamed Metwally “Kanaria” and Cristovao Mabululu.

Ittihad Alexandria will begin their league campaign with a major test against Zamalek next Friday, after finishing last season in 10th place in the relegation-avoidance group.

With such a large number of additions, Ittihad Alexandria enter the new season with a significantly reshaped squad and renewed ambitions, hoping to make a stronger start and avoid the struggles of last season.
