El-Entag El-Harby
El-Entag El-Harby (Arabic: الانتاج الحربي ; English: Military Production) is a Cairo-based football club in the Egyptian Premier League, representing the Ministry of War Production. Its promotion to the Premier League for the 2009-2010 season marked its first appearance at that level.
History
After a long and an intense race with Al Nasr and El Dakhleya in 2008-09 Egyptian Second Division, El-Entag El-Harby secured its first appearance ever in the Egyptian Premier League. The team needed their last match that season (2-2 tie with GASCO) to win promotion. In preparation for its premier league campaign, El-Entag El-Harby appointed Tarek Yehia as the new manager. Yehia quickly looked for the option of signing experienced Egyptian players that could lead the team to prevent relegation. He signed players such as Mohamed Aboul Ela (Zamalek former captain), Mostafa Kamal (Veteran Goal Keeper), Hassan Mousa, and others.
Tarek Yehia enjoyed great success with his team. Surprisingly, El-Entag El-Harby finished 7th in its first season at the Premier League level (2009–10).[1] However, Yehia's era at the club lasted for only that season. He preferred to move to newly promoted Misr Lel Makasa. Osama Orabi replaced him.[2]
