Malmo. Aim and help in first appearance.
A goal and Sanan in the first match at Elida Stadium.
Mustafa Zeidan, 24, had a great start at Malmö FF.
– That’s the level he should be on a big team like MFF, he says.
Between seven and nine million crowns. I got a lot Malmo FF Pay to get rid of Mustafa Zeidan this summer.
The money is well invested, given his start at the club.
There was a long battle between Hammarby and the MFF to get rid of Sirius’ offensive midfielder, but in the end the choice fell on Malmö FF, as he thought his style of play would be better with the team. His first two Allsvenskan matches seem to prove he’s right about it. On his debut against IFK Norrköping, he scored a goal and an assist when Malmö won 2-0. And in his first home match, he scored a goal and assisted two goals to defeat his new team, his old side Sirius 3-1.
– I am grateful for the start that was given to me. Now it’s just about continuing to maintain a high level, which is the level he should have at a big team like Malmo, he says.
“They trust me, I trust them”
The development process has gone very quickly for the 24-year-old from Helsingborg. A year ago he played in Superettan with Jönköping Södra. During last year’s summer window, Sirius bought it, where he only stayed for a year. And now, successful weeks at the new Malmö FF club.
– Easy to play well with good players around you. Malmo has great players, they trust me, I trust them. And with every passing match, we’ll find each other better.
Against his old teammates on Sirius, he was from the start attentive and clever in every sequence. In fact, the only time he hesitated was after he scored 2-0 behind David Mitoff Nelson. Will he celebrate the goal or not? At the end there was a celebration in front of the heel of Malmo.
– Haha, I hesitated. It was mixed feelings. I scored against my old team that I left three weeks ago. I tried to hold back my feelings, but that was hard. It was nothing personal.
What do your old teammates say about your match?
– I don’t think they have anything against it. These are good comrades, these are my friends. We all want the best for each other.
For Malmo, the victory was significant. Not only do they now shine better in the big fight, but by one point over Häcken, who has played two games fewer. But also a good feeling before returning in next week’s Champions League qualifiers against Zalgiris, which Malmo lost to (0-1) in the first match.
– Well, well, we’re back from that match. It is important that you come with the same energy that you have today. Hopefully we can get the same crowd support we got today as well.
