Recent reports revealed that officials at Al Ahly club intend to allow Malian midfielder Aliou Dieng to leave during the upcoming January transfer window.

The reports stated that Al Ahly's management has entered discussions with Dieng and his agent regarding the renewal of his contract, which expires at the end of the current season.

According to sources, there are voices within the planning committee at Al Ahly advocating for Dieng's departure to achieve financial benefit from his sale during the January transfers.

Some believe that Dieng's performance has significantly declined, in addition to his demand for a high salary for renewal, making his departure more likely than his stay.

The reports indicated that Dieng requested an annual salary of $1.8 million, prompting Al Ahly's management to consider selling the remaining six months of his contract instead of renewing it.
