Yasin Khalid Abdelrahman Hamed (Arabic: ياسين خالد عبدالرحمن حامد, born 12 September 1999) is a professional footballer who plays as a winger for UAE Second Division League club Forte Virtus. Born in Romania, he represents Sudan internationally.

Club career

Liberty Salonta

Born in Salonta, Romania, Hamed started his football career playing for the academy of Liberty Salonta, where George Pușcaș, Ovidiu Bic, Alexandru Sorian or Adrian Șut were launched.[citation needed]

Târgu Mureș

After a short period at LPS Bihorul Oradea, he moved to ASA 2013 Târgu Mureș where, on 23 July 2016, Hamed made his Liga I debut, in a match against Gaz Metan Mediaș, lost 1-2 by "the red and blues". Followed another two matches in the kits of the team from Târgu Mureș, then in the winter of 2017 the forward chose to leave the club.

Pandurii Târgu Jiu

Yasin signed in the early 2017 a contract with Pandurii Târgu Jiu, then on 15 May 2017, aged 17, he scored his first Liga I goal in a 3–2 victory over Concordia Chiajna. The relegation of Pandurii from the top-flight of the Romanian football league system was a bad news, but the 16 matches played for the team based in Oltenia and the good performances gave him a contract from the former champion CFR Cluj.

CFR Cluj

At CFR Cluj things have stalled, the club from Cluj-Napoca chose to use him in only 4 matches of the second team, squad that is playing in the Liga III, third tier, so in the winter of 2018 Hamed chose to leave "the railwaymen".

Sepsi OSK Sfântu Gheorghe

On 11 January 2018, Yasin Hamed signed an 18-month contract with the Liga I club Sepsi OSK Sfântu Gheorghe, where in almost two years played 47 matches and scored 5 goals, being an important member of the squad that was ranked 6th at the end of the 2018–19 Liga I season, the best ranking in the history of Sepsi and the town of Sfântu Gheorghe.

International career

Even if over the time Hamed expressed his desire to play for the Romania national football team, lack of interest from "The Tricolours" made him choose the Sudan national football team, for which he was selected for the first time in November 2019. The selection was made for two matches against São Tomé and Príncipe and South Africa, matches counting for the 2021 Africa Cup of Nations qualification Group C.

On 29 September 2026, Hamed scored his first international goal, an 88th minute penalty in a 4–1 defeat to Mozambique.

Personal life

Hamed was born in Salonta, Romania to a Romanian mother and Sudanese Nubian father.
