Al Ahly Close to Signing New Defender

Ahmad Hassan, the former Egyptian football star, announced that Al Ahly's management is keen to bolster the first team's defense during the ongoing transfer window, in response to the coaching staff's desire to enhance defensive solidity for competing in domestic and continental tournaments.

Hassan clarified via his official Facebook account that a source within Al Ahly confirmed serious efforts to sign a new player for the center-back position. He pointed out that the management considers this matter one of the top priorities in their current reinforcement plans.

A former star of Al Ahly has revealed that the club's planning committee is currently reviewing several player profiles for potential additions to the team. The committee is weighing options between multiple local and foreign names to select the most suitable and beneficial elements for the team's defensive setup.

Al Ahly's management is taking this step to provide strong alternatives and create fierce competition in the backline, especially given the congested seasons and the heavy match schedule the team faces across various competitions.
