Rio Ave

Hassan played for Rio Ave's youth team for one season. He was promoted to the first team in the beginning of the 2012–13 season and debuted on 9 September 2012 against F.C. Paços de Ferreira.

In tears during his celebration, Hassan dedicated the goal to his father, who had died the day before.

As a Egyptian under-20 national team player, Hassan scored twice in Turkey against Iraq[6] and England,[7] while assisting his country's only goal against Chile for the Egypt U-20 team.[8]
