Mido sent a message to his compatriot Hamza Abdel Karim, the young Barcelona striker, praising the opportunity the player received during the pre-season period and stressing that his courage and ability to take advantage of opportunities deserves praise.
Mido said: "I congratulate Hamza Abdel Karim on the opportunity he received, his courage, his scoring of goals in friendly matches, and his remarkable performance."
Mido pointed out that Hamza Abdel Karim's level is developing remarkably, but at the same time he believes that Barcelona still needs a striker with great experience to lead the front line, especially in light of the strong competition for championships.
Hamza Abdelkarim, 18, joined Barcelona last January on loan from Al-Ahly of Egypt before the Catalan club exercised the option to buy his contract last June.
Abdel Karim also participated with the Egyptian national team in the last World Cup and performed well, then continued to attract attention during his time with Barcelona.
