Movie hard man takes on the Vikings

Hollywood star Tamer Hassan is heading to Goole AFC at the end of the month to entertain fans of the Evo-Stik Northern Premier League’s Vikings.

The British actor, pictured, has appeared in a host of Hollywood movies alongside the likes of Nicholas Cage, Richard Gere, Liam Neeson and Ralph Fiennes since making his name in a series of modern British classics led by The Football Factory, Layer Cake and Calcium Kid.

Hassan, who grew up in South East London where he learned to box and play football, skills that later helped him perfect his on screen 'hard man' image, is hosting ‘An Evening with Tamer Hassan’ at the First Division South club’s Victoria Pleasure Ground on Saturday 30 November after the Vikings host Loughborough Dynamo.

Hassan is currently working on several new humanitarian and film projects, both in Europe and across the pond, and has been involved with his local club, Kent League Greenwich Borough, for a number of years.
