The Egyptian newspaper Al-Masry Al-Youm has officially clarified the situation regarding Al Ahly’s alleged interest in signing Hassan Abu Al-Maati, who plays for the Portuguese side Rio Ave. Recently, widespread rumors suggested that serious negotiations were taking place between the Cairo giants and the talented player for a potential transfer.
However, the publication, citing a source who is very close to the player, confirmed that these reports are entirely baseless. Al Ahly has neither opened formal talks nor inquired about his specific contractual status. Consequently, all circulating speculations regarding this move are factually incorrect.
Amidst these transfer rumors, Al Ahly remains focused on the pitch. The team is currently intensifying preparations to face their opponent Enppi in the highly anticipated first round of the Egypt Capital Cup. This crucial match is scheduled to take place on Thursday, December 11, as the club looks to secure a vital victory in the tournament.
