From Nagrig to the world
In FIFA’s telling, Mohamed Salah grew from the small village of Nagrig in Egypt’s Gharbia Governorate into a captain carrying the hopes of his country.
Shared language: football
This city does not merely watch football. It lives it.
In Trabzon, the sound of the ball travels from neighbourhood courtyards to the stadium, from childhood dreams into the history of Anatolian football.
NAGRIG × TRABZON
Two brave stories, both rooted at home
A global star rising from Nagrig and a Black Sea city challenging football’s established centre reach the same idea from different places: where you begin does not define how far you can go.
From the neighbourhood to Anatolia
Trabzon’s official football history places the game at the centre of city life from the 1920s onward. Clubs shaped social life, rivalry and ties between generations.
