Biography
Karim Hafez Ramadan Seifeldin (Arabic: كريم حافظ رمضان سيف الدين; born 12 March 1996) is an Egyptian professional footballer who plays for Egyptian Premier League club Pyramids and the Egypt national team as a left-back.
Club career Hafez made his top flight debut with Belgian club Lierse S.K. on 30 August 2014 against Waasland-Beveren in a 2–0 away defeat. On 20 September 2014, he scored his first league goal against K.V.C. Westerlo in a 6–1 away defeat. Hafez continued to play for Lierse's senior side and was one of their star performers, scoring three goals in the Jupiler Pro League but could not save his club from relegation.
