Biography
Egyptian striker Zaki potted a brace against City when playing for Wigan Athletic in 2008, but when the Tigers took him on loan from Zamalek 17 months later he failed to deliver and was soon jettisoned.
Zaki was born in Mansoura, a large city at the northern end of the Nile delta, and started his career at his home town club. He subsequently played, and scored prolifically, for ENPPI and Zamalek, with a short and fruitless spell at Lokomotiv Moscow in between. His season long loan at Wigan yielded plenty of goals but Zaki irked manager Steve Bruce with a carefree approach to returning back to his club in time for the League match after an international week.
Zaki left Zamalek in 2012 and had brief spells in Turkey, Kuwait, Morocco and Lebanon, ending his playing career in 2015.
Zaki earned 63 senior international caps for Egypt, scoring an impressive 30 goals.
