Three arenas

Media. Athlete. Business.

The microphone

The anchor beIN sends to the nights the whole region watches. In Arabic for the Gulf, in English for the world, and never reading from a script when the match goes sideways.

The presenter

The racket

He didn’t just talk about padel on air. He trained, got good, and now wears Qatar’s colours on the court, with a racket that carries his own initials.

The athlete

The boardroom

Away from the cameras he builds companies around the sport and lends his name only to brands he actually uses. The audience can tell the difference.

The entrepreneur

Media personality

Primary
presenter

Ask a football fan in the Gulf who presented the World Cup final and they will say his name. Mohammed has fronted beIN’s coverage of the sport’s biggest events for more than a decade, from the studio desk to live positions inside the stadium.

He moves between Arabic and English guests without a translator, which is why beIN Sports trusts him with the nights the whole region is watching.

Brands don’t hire Mohammed for a logo on a shirt. Huawei brought him in to launch in the Middle East, Qatar 2022 made him an ambassador, and Vodafone Qatar and Genesis keep him on their campaigns because the audience already trusts him.
