Al Ahly SC manages transfer moves amid injury and player departures
Al Ahly SC is navigating significant roster changes during the summer transfer window following a major injury and player departure discussions. The club is working to resolve the future of Moroccan player Reda Slim. Management is exploring options to market the player or reach a mutual agreement to terminate his contract, provided a suitable offer is received. While Moroccan club AS FAR has reportedly made a $300,000 offer, Al Ahly has declined it, seeking a higher valuation. Additionally, Egyptian club Al Masry has shown interest and may cover Slim's $800,000 salary.
Compounding these negotiations, Al Ahly faces a defensive crisis after Moroccan defender Youssef Belamari was confirmed to have suffered an ACL injury. Belamari is expected to be sidelined for six to nine months, forcing the club to seek a replacement left-back in the transfer market to bolster the squad for upcoming competitions.
