The powerful striker has bagged 89 goals in 172 games back in his native land, but today left those stats behind him as he signed a three year deal.However City Dominique Wilkins Jersey will have to wait until Meteb is granted a work permit before he can put on the red shirt, although that shouldnt be a problem. Emad will return home to Egypt to say good bye to his fans against Zamalek however he will NOT play in the match, this was confirmed by Gary Johnson.The 26 year old told the official site: Im happy to be here and I hope to give all my best for Bristol City. I want to give my best for the manager (Gary Johnson), who I like very much.I am a natural striker and I know all about Bristol City. I know the kind of supporters that are waiting to see me play. It has been a difficult decision to leave the club where I grew up and learnt my football.But this is a profe sional life and Im sure they will understand my decision in Egypt. I hope to realise all my dreams with Bristol City. Dikembe Mutombo Jersey
