Hassan retuned back to Belgium and attended the first training for the new season with his teammates at Anderlecht.

The Egyptian who helped the Mauves win the league title last season revealed to the press that he only rested for two weeks.

I barely had two weeks of vacation," complained the Egyptian. "I played two international games for the national team and one jubilee game."

Hassan may had hoped to get a week or two of extra rest in Belgium before he can start ttraining but the coach Vercauteren decided not to give the international players any extra rest.
