His father coached at SSB Tasbi, a football school in Medan where Egy began to play, while his older brother Yusrizal Muzakki has played for lower league teams in Indonesia. At SSB Tasbi, Egy participated in the Grassroots Indonesian U-12 Tournament in 2012. His raw talent was noticed by the Indonesian national talent scouts.
