Mohamed El Yamani (Arabic: محمد اليماني) (born January 1, 1982) is an Egyptian footballer. He plays as a striker, currently for Maltese Premier Division side Floriana FC.^[1]^[2]

Club career

Standard Liège

At Standard Liège, El Yamani impressed, and his club thought they would cash in on him when he excelled at the 2001 FIFA World Youth Championship in Argentina. He was very close from Italian giants Juventus, but a dramatic car accident in Cairo set back this move. In July 2001, when El Yamani was on his way to the airport, he lost control of his car after bursting a tyre. In addition to this offer from Juventus, another one from Bayern Munich did not materialize.

In August 2002, El Yamani was listed for loan, and although Alemannia Aachen announced that it had acquired his services, he remained at Standard Liège. Eventually, KV Mechelen signed El Yamani on loan at the start of 2003.

Loan to KV Mechelen

Despite poor performances from his team, El Yamani, who wore number nine, was impressive.

Upon returning to Standard Liège at the start of 2003-2004 season, he had a superb pre-season, and featured heavily for his club in the following months.

Return to Egypt

In May 2004, El Yamani decided to return to Egypt, signing for giants Zamalek SC.^[3]

Back to Europe

In January 2011 he was close to signing for Finnish club Kuopion Palloseura but instead decided to join Maltese club Floriana FC. He could help the Maltese team finish 2nd in the league and gain silverware for the first time in 17 years as the team was crowned Maltese Cup winners qualifying to UEFA Europa League.
