Club career
Gedo started his career at Hosh Essa youth centre. When he was 17, he joined Ala'ab Damanhour, a small club in the Egyptian Second Division, before joining Al-Ittihad Al-Sakndary in 2005.[1][2] Before the start of the 2010–11 campaign, Gedo joined Egyptian giant El Ahly, after much speculation of the player signing for Zamalek in January, which the player admitted. The case was presented to the Egyptian football association. A decision was made to charge Gedo 2,200,000 Egyptian pounds, with the ability to resume his career with El Ahly. Gedo made his debut for El Ahly against Ismaily in CAF Champions League 2010.
International career
He has represented Egypt national football team, making his debut against Malawi on 29 December 2009. Gedo was named as part of the 2010 African Cup of Nations squad.[3] He admitted he was surprised by his inclusion in the squad and had read on the internet that he was included.[4] Gedo scored his first international goal in Dubai against Mali after coming on as a substitute in the 1–0 on 4 January in the build up to the African Cup of Nations.[5][6] In the opening match for the Egyptian team in the Cup of Nations, he scored the third goal in the 3–1 victory over Nigeria on 12 January.[7] Four days later he scored a goal in Egypt's 2–0 win over Mozambique.[8] In the Quarter Final of the tournament, he scored in Egypt's 3–1 win over Cameroon.[9] Gedo scored again in the Semi Final on 28 January. He scored the fourth goal in Egypt's 4–0 victory over Algeria.[10] In the 2010 Africa Cup of Nations final against Ghana, he scored the match's only goal in the 84th minute which led Egypt to a 1–0 victory and their seventh title.[11] Gedo came on as a substitute in the six games of the tournament, playing a total of 173 minutes. Yet he was named top scorer of the tournament with five goals, meaning that in Angola he scored a goal every 35 minutes he played.[12][13]
