Egypt star Hamza Abdelkarim earns long-term Barcelona deal
Abdelkarim joined Barcelona initially on loan from Egyptian giants Al Ahly in February before making his move permanent during the European summer.

The young forward also caught the eye during Barcelona's pre-season campaign, scoring four goals in five appearances.
He was rewarded with his competitive debut for the Spanish champions last month when he came on as a late substitute during Barcelona's 5-2 La Liga victory over Rayo Vallecano.
Barcelona confirmed on Friday that Abdelkarim will formally sign his contract extension on Tuesday, tying him to the club for the next four years.
