Al-Tabei was given the nickname ''El-Dhizui'' for his likeness to a local-based Italian player called Desi Lucetti. He was first known in his home city of Port Said as ''Desi Al-Saghir'' or Desi Junior, which later changed to ''Deswi'' or ''El-Dhizui''.


==Club career==
'''El-Sayed Mohammed Al-Tabei “El-Dhizui”''' (14 September 1926 – 24 December 1991) was an [[Egypt]]ian [[soccer|footballer]]. He was born in [[Port Said]].

El-Dhizui began his playing career at an early age with his school at the Nile Primary School and later at Port Said Secondary, where he was spotted playing in a school league by Hussein Al-Deeb, coach of the [[Al-Masry Club]], who was astounded by the youngster's ability on the ball. The coach alerted the club's president Abdel-Rahman Lotfi Pasha and, at the age of 16, the player was signed up for the team.

He quickly became a regular in the first team helping the club to win six titles in the [[Canal Zone League]] in 1943, 1944, 1945, 1946, 1947, and 1948, also reaching three Egyptian Cup finals. He was eventually called into the national team for the first time in a friendly game with Hungary in 1947. El-Dhizui ended up on the losing side with a 3–2 defeat but did manage to score on his debut.

El-Sayed Mohammed Al-Tabei "El-Dhizui" (14 September 1926 – 24 December 1991) was an Egyptian footballer. He was born in Port Said. He competed for Egypt at the 1948 Summer Olympics and the 1952 Summer Olympics.[1]

Al-Tabei was given the nickname El-Dhizui for his likeness to a local-based Italian player called Desi Lucetti. He was first known in his home city of Port Said as Desi Al-Saghir or Desi Junior, which later changed to Deswi or El-Dhizui.

Club career

El-Dhizui began his playing career at an early age with his school at the Nile Primary School and later at Port Said Secondary, where he was spotted playing in a school league by Hussein Al-Deeb, coach of the Al-Masry Club, who was astounded by the youngster's ability on the ball. The coach alerted the club's president Abdel-Rahman Lotfi Pasha and, at the age of 16, the player was signed up for the team.

He quickly became a regular in the first team helping the club to win six titles in the Canal Zone League in 1943, 1944, 1945, 1946, 1947, and 1948, also reaching three Egyptian Cup finals. He was eventually called into the national team for the first time in a friendly game with Hungary in 1947. El-Dhizui ended up on the losing side with a 3–2 defeat but did manage to score on his debut. One year later he played at the 1948 Olympic Games in London.[2] He scored five goals in three games to help Egypt win the 1st Pan Arab Games in Alexandria in 1953. When he played against the Netherlands, he impressed Queen Juliana of the Netherlands so much that after the game she half-jokingly asked for El-Dhizui's boots to be checked for magnets, as it seemed to her that the ball was glued to his feet for most of the game. The remark earned him another nickname, "El-Magnatis" or the Magnet. With his home club Al-Masry, he was leading scorer in the Egyptian league three times in consecutive years in 1949, 1950 and 1951, and after his move to Al Ahly in Cairo his 14 goals gave him his fourth title in 1959 and ended his career with Al-Ahly with 49 goals in five seasons for the club.
