Magid Mohamed (Arabic: ماجد محمد; born 1 October 1985) is a footballer who plays as a midfielder.[3] Born in Sudan, he represented the Qatar national team.

Identity controversy

[edit]

In 2007, the Saudi Arabia Football Federation lodged an official complaint against Qatar for fielding Magid in an Olympic qualifying match, who was thought to be ineligible due to his age. The complaint was based on the belief that Magid was born in November 1982, in Cairo, Egypt. According to the SFA, he was a Sudanese national who moved to Saudi Arabia with his father and studied in Omar bin Abdulaziz school in Jeddah - which is where the Saudi government obtained Majed's records from - before moving to Qatar and becoming a citizen.[4] The complaint was made directly after a qualification match for the 2008 Summer Olympics, which Qatar had won.[5] The rules of FIFA state that any player over the age of 23 cannot participate in the competition, whereas Magid was believed to be 25 at the time.

Shortly after, the Qatar Football Association released an article in response to the SFA's allegations. The article stated that "Magid Mohamed Imam Salima" was born in Khartoum, Sudan, on August 17, 1985.[1] In contradiction to this statement indicating his age, his profile on the official QFA website, in addition to his passport, showed Magid's date of birth as October 1, 1985. To further add to the confusion, his name is most widely recognized as "Magid Mohamed Hassan", as opposed to the former.[6]

He was eventually cleared to play, and took part in the Olympic team's next match against Saudi Arabia, scoring Qatar's only goal of the match.
