Hamed Brothers: Palestinian Players Aim for San Mamés | Biscay Football

The party that Euskal Selekzioa will play against Palestine in San Mamés could make Yaser and Jamal Hamed cross their roots with their origins. The two players were born in Bizkaia, but they have the Palestinian nationality. They are children of Ahmed, a Gazatí who arrived in Bizkaia in the mid -60s to study the Medicine career, and Ana María Mayor, a native of Miranda de Ebro but who was very young to moved to Leioa, where both were born. The eldest, Yaser, knows what it is to be international. His little brother not yet, but he dreams of doing it in the cathedral in November. The idyllic scenario. Everything is in the hands of the list deciding the IHAB Abu Jazar coach.
