Ahmed Mohamed Ali Gomaa (; born 16 August 1988), is an Egyptian footballer who played for Egyptian Premier League side Al Masry, and the Egyptian national team as a forward. Last playing for ENPPI SC in 2021. He is currently a free agent.

Club career Abou Bedway In 2003, during Ramadan when Gomaa was playing football with his friends, Abou Bedway's manager, Ibrahim Abou Sita, offered him a trial at the club; Gomaa didn't like the idea to join a football club and wanted to play football only as a hobby, but his family and friends convinced him that joining the club may be the start of a great football career. Gomma joined Abou Bedway at the age of 15 and played for the reserve team for only one year, before he moved to Ghazl El Mahalla. He scored his first goal in his official debut on 17 November 2011 against Baladeyet El Mahalla in a 1–2 loss in the 2011–12 Egyptian Second Division. He scored 4 goals in 7 matches in his first season, however all of the football competitions in Egypt were suspended by the Egyptian Football Association after the Port Said Stadium riot occurred. Gomma finished his second season as the club's top goalscorer, scoring 16 goals in 25 matches. He also finished as the club's top goalscorer in the next season despite scoring only 6 goals in 19 matches in a disappointing season for his side as they failed to qualify to the promotion play-offs. His last goal for El Mansoura was on 12 May 2014 against Ittihad Nabarouh in a 1–1 draw in the league.

Al Masry On 22 July 2014, Al Masry announced the signing of Gomaa from El Mansoura in a 3-year contract for an undisclosed fee. Gomaa had a hard start with Al Masry under Tarek Yehia, who wasn't convinced with his ability. He played only 4 matches and ended up being benched during the first half of the season.

Loan to Ittihad El Shorta On 14 January 2015, Ittihad El Shorta announced the signing of Gomaa and his teammate Eliassou Issiaka on loan until the end of the 2014–15 Egyptian Premier League season. He scored 4 goals in 20 appearances with the club. On 28 May 2015, Gomaa scored against the league winners Zamalek in a 5–1 loss. Ittihad El Shorta finished the season in the 15th place, one point above the relegation zone and 5 points below Al Masry.
