Himid Mao Rejoins Azam FC After Years in Egypt

Azam FC has confirmed the signing of midfielder Himid Mao Mkami, who was a free agent after the expiry of his contract with Egyptian club El Gaish.

It's a homecoming of sorts for Mao, who left Tanzania in 2018 after playing for Azam FC to join Egypt’s Petrojet SC.

Since then, he has featured for several Egyptian clubs, and yesterday Azam FC officially announced that they have re-signed the 32-year-old midfielder—who also represents Tanzania's national team—on a one-year deal.

Himid joins goalkeeper Aishi Manula, who was also recently unveiled by Azam FC after spending eight years at Simba SC.
