Rida Slim's Surprising Decision Stuns Al Ahly Officials
In a surprising turn of events, Moroccan winger Rida Slim, who plays for the first team of Al Ahly football club, has left club officials in shock after rejecting a transfer offer from Egyptian club Al Masry. This decision comes despite financial agreements that had been reached between Al Ahly and Al Masry regarding the potential transfer. A reliable source within the club's football management committee has confirmed that Rida Slim has expressed a desire to return to Morocco and has turned down the idea of being loaned out to another club within the Egyptian league.
Al Ahly's Challenges in Securing Rida Slim's Future
Rida Slim has received several offers, including two from Moroccan clubs, namely FUS Rabat and Royal Army Club, as well as a Libyan proposal and another from Al Masry. However, he has made it clear that he is not interested in pursuing any new experience outside of Morocco if he is not included in Al Ahly's roster for the upcoming football season. The situation has prompted Al Ahly to face complications regarding Slim's transfer to the Moroccan league, as the clubs there are hesitant to bear his substantial salary, which amounts to approximately $900,000. In contrast, Al Masry was willing to cover nearly 50% of Slim's salary during a potential season-long loan.
In light of these circumstances, Al Ahly officials are set to hold another meeting with Rida Slim's agent in hopes of reaching a final agreement with the player. They aim to persuade Slim to accept a reduction in his salary, which would facilitate his transfer to the Moroccan league through either the Royal Army Club or FUS Rabat.
