Khaled Abboud's soccer journey began in Cairo, Egypt, where he developed his skills at El Shams Club before advancing to the youth ranks of El Zamalek SC, one of Africa’s top clubs. He went on to represent Egypt's National Teams from U14 to U20, earning 19 caps at the senior level and competing in major tournaments like the African Championship U18 and World Cup qualifiers. His professional career included stints in France with clubs like Troyes and Sochaux, followed by a return to Egypt with Haras El Hodood SC.

After retiring, Khaled transitioned into coaching, holding positions at the Barcelona Academy in Egypt and the Total Futbol Academy in Virginia. In 2023, he founded EKS, aiming to bring professional-level training to youth players in Northern Virginia. With UEFA and USSF licenses, Khaled emphasizes hands-on instruction, personally demonstrating techniques in each session to foster real player growth.
