KING FUT HAS ARRIVED!

Its been long in the making, but its finally here! An English-based Egyptian football website that will change the way Egyptian football is tackled in the English media and Egyptian sports journalism in general.

There are a lot of Egyptian based websites covering Egyptian football, news and other football stuff, but as much as it’s done professionally, it’s always mostly in Arabic. We believe that there’s a large portion of football fans around the world who are quite interested in Egyptian football and its on goings, but don’t necessarily have the Arabic proficiency to follow what’s going on in Egypt. This is where King Fut comes in.

The brainchild of 3 Egyptian sports enthusiasts and journalists, King Fut will aspire to change the way Egyptian football is perceived. From new and innovative match reviews, previews, scouting reports and editorials to exclusive interviews, sports development, business and everything in between, King Fut will be your one stop hub for everything Egyptian Football related.

There will be ongoing changes across the site, and constant articles updated regularly, so if you’re interested in contributing, advertising or have any other comments, make sure you get in touch.

One passion. One joy. Egyptian Football.

King Fut was founded in 2012; owned and run by three young Egyptians who possess various long experiences in media journalism and most importantly, the passion and love of the game. Mohamed Seif is a Cairo based journalist with over 5 years of experience in sports journalism. Working previously in Goal.com international, a Sports Editor of READ Newspaper, doing TV punditry and freelancing in various blogs and publications. He’ll be bringing all this experience to the site. Adam Moustafa has extensively scouted and monitored the progress of Pharaohs in Europe since 2007. He’s been following the game non-stop over the last few years, writing for the likes of Just Football, Lovely Left Foot, Egyptian Players, among others; and has also made a few radio appearances on the BBC. Moustafa El Chiati is a rabid life-long  fan of all things Egyptian and international football.  His passion and dedication to the cause spans close to three decades. He has previously contributed articles to A Football Report, Lovely Left Foot and more. He is also a long-suffering, beleaguered fantasy football manager.

Meet the Founders:

Adam Moustafa

• Favourite Club(s): Arsenal, Toronto FC.
• Bio: Son of an Egyptian football fanatic who used to play in the streets of Cairo with Hassan Hamdy (current Al Ahly president). The passion is genetic, and will hopefully be reflected in King Fut. Fond of scouting Egyptian players, have watched almost every game involving a Pharaoh in Europe since 2007.  Goal with KingFut is to scout and promote Egyptian talent – local and abroad – who don’t receive the credit and coverage they deserve; and hopefully help to improve the organization in Egyptian football, too! Previously written for the likes of Just Football, Lovely Left Foot, Egyptian Players; and have also done some work with the BBC following the tragedy of Port Said. Pro-Stephan El Shaarawy – fan of his since watching him make his debut with Genoa (aged 16).

   Fantastic site and great work boys!!. This site has been much needed. I live overseas and found the twitter live broadcast to be a life saver in times when I am unable to watch the games, it also made it easier to follow the Egyptian league. The layout of the site is great!!. It’s clear that a lot of time and passion is invested here. Keep up the good work, and keep supporting our boys through to Brazil 2014, and most importantly keep it Red, white and black
