The name of Jordanian star Musa Al-Taamari has been linked to a move to Al-Ahly during the upcoming winter transfer period, and it was said that he has already welcomed a return to the Middle East through the Egyptian club.
Al-Taamari, who plays for Montpellier, was the talk of the town in Egypt, after a report from the newspaper “L’Equipe” revealed the details of Al-Ahly’s offer to acquire his services.
What are the details of Al-Ahly’s offer to buy Musa Al-Taamari?
According to “L’Equipe”, Al-Ahly has submitted an official offer to Montpellier to buy Musa Al-Taamari for 6 million euros, or more than 300 million Egyptian pounds.
Despite the huge offer, the French club held on to its star and decided to keep him with them until the end of the season in the hope that he will help them escape relegation.
The 27-year-old has so far scored two goals in 14 matches he played with Montpellier this season in the French League, and was on the radar of many clubs in Ligue 1, as well as in the Saudi League.
What is the truth about Al-Ahly’s offer to buy Musa Al-Taamari?
A source from within Al-Ahly responded to this news, and confirmed that it is baseless.
The source explained in statements to the FilGoal website that Al-Ahly did not submit any offer of this huge value during the current winter Mercato.
Logically, Al-Ahly cannot meet such an amount even when participating in the Club World Cup, given the scarcity of hard currency resources.
Al-Ahly’s deals in the winter transfer market
Al-Ahly has made 5 heavyweight deals so far during the winter transfer period.
The Egyptian club signed Mustafa Al-Ash on loan from ZFC, then signed Njik Gradishar for $1.5 million.
After that, the Red Devils announced the signing of the Egyptian Ahmed Reda from Petrojet for 25 million pounds.
As for the two biggest deals, they were the signing of Ashraf Ben Sharqi for free from Al-Rayyan, and the other was the signing of Mahmoud Hassan Trezeguet for 1.6 million euros, but starting next season.
