Said is a 30-year old Egypt international with more than 50 caps to his name. He began his career in 2000 with Al Ahly and during his time there enjoyed a loan spell with English Premier League club Everton.

He has played for Al Zamalek and Ismaily in Egypt (Al Ahly's arch rivals), Caykur Rizespor and Ankaragucu in Turkey and Al Ahly Tripoli in Libya.
