The Halgan Media service desk is sad to report the sudden death of Ibrahim Mohamed Hersi. The former coach of Somalia’s national football team.

Ibrahim Mohamed Hersi passed away at his home in Minneapolis, Minnesota with family and friends by his side. Ibrahim coached Somalia’s national football team during the 1970’s and competed on the world stage. He later presided over the Horseed Football Club in Somalia until the collapse of the nation in 1991.

Ibrahim fled to the US and just like many other Somali refugees settled in the state of Minnesota. Upon arriving in the US he married and had three children named Muna, Munira and Mohamed. He also had several grandchildren according to family members that spoke with Halgan Media.

His Janazah (funeral) was held this morning in Minneapolis, where hundreds of people attended. Some even traveled as far away as from Canada to take part in the services. Once again, the Halgan Media service desk would like to give our condolences to Ibrahim Mohamed Hersi and his loved ones.
