The new sensation is the Brazilian wonderkid Juan Bezerra (23), who is making headlines in the Egyptian Premier League and in the CAF Confederation Cup.

In his debut season with the Cairo-based club, the Rio de Janeiro native has netted 5 goals and delivered 9 assists in 28 appearances across all competitions.

A brilliant performance that has made him the new star attraction of Egypt’s flagship competition.

A product of Vasco, Juan Bezerra had a stint in Ukraine with FK Oleksandriya before joining the Egyptian football giant during the last summer transfer window for a fee of €1.8 million.

Under contract until 2029, the Brazilian gem might not stay long at Zamalek.
