Biography

A goalkeeper with Al-Ahly, Mansour played for Egypt in the 1934 World Cup in Italy and suffered a broken nose in the game against Hungary.

After the Olympic Games, Mansour moved to Scotland to begin a diploma in physical education at Jordan Hill Training College. Although offered the sum of £5,000 to turn professional, he signed instead for Queen’s Park, the only amateur club in the Scottish professional leagues.

On the outbreak of war in 1939 he returned to Egypt. He continued his involvement with football after his playing career had ended, serving as secretary general of the Confederation of African Football (CAF) between 1958 and 1961 and holding high ranking positions within Egyptian football. He also served as a minister in the Egyptian government.
