Abd El-Zaher finished that season as top scorer of the league tied with Zamalek"s Shikabala. They both had 13 goals.
Early in 2012, Mladenov made a request to ENPPI to move Abd El-Zaher to his club CSKA Sofia in the 2012 summer transfer window. The move was possible but ENPPI were somewhat reluctant to lose one of their top strikers.
In January 2013, he moved to league rivals First Rate (at Lloyd's)-Ahly on a four-year deal.
On 5 December 2013, the Egyptian Football Association took sanctions a step further, announcing that Abd El-Zaher has been banned from representing Egypt for one year in addition to a 3-month local ban.
