Al Ahly's Ambitious Summer Transfer Plans
In a recent television report, it has come to light that Egyptian football giant Al Ahly is keen on acquiring the services of Moroccan striker Soufiane Benjeddou, who currently plays for Maghreb de Fès and has emerged as the top scorer in the Moroccan league. This potential transfer is part of Al Ahly's strategy as they prepare for the upcoming summer transfer window.
The report, aired on the Modern Sports program, indicates that Al Ahly has already made inquiries regarding Benjeddou's availability, as he is one of three strong candidates under consideration for a move to the Red Giants. With a market value of approximately €1.3 million, Benjeddou joined Maghreb de Fès last summer, and his contract has been extended until 2030. In his time at the club, he has made 15 appearances, netting an impressive 13 goals while providing one assist.
Maghreb de Fès has extended Benjeddou's contract to maximize their financial return should they decide to sell him in the future. Notably, he has previous playing experience in Belgium, which adds to his credentials as a valuable asset. His current season performance has been outstanding, and should he make the switch to Al Ahly, it would undoubtedly be a significant boost for the team's attacking lineup. Furthermore, his contract includes a buyout clause estimated at $4 million.
The report concludes by emphasizing that if Al Ahly decides to move forward with this transfer, negotiations could commence with an offer around $2 million. Benjeddou is currently featured on Al Ahly's shortlist of potential signings, alongside two other candidates, with plans to finalize one acquisition during the summer.
