Al Ahly Targets Bank Al Ahly Duo in Winter Window; Backup Option in Sight
5 January 2026
Overview
Al Ahly is moving to sign two players from Bank Al Ahly in the winter window, at head coach Yass Tourub's request. The club targets at least five signings to reinforce the squad for the season ahead.
A source told Kooora that Yassin Mansour, the club's deputy president, has contacted Mohamed El-Etriby, president of Bank Al Ahly, to negotiate the arrivals of Osama Faisal and Amr El-Gazar.
In the coming days, officials will meet to finalize the deals. Al Ahly has also named Marwan Osman, Ceramica Cleopatra's striker, as a backup option if talks with Bank Al Ahly stall.
Outlook
Upcoming days will reveal whether the deals materialize and if the backup option is needed to fill gaps in the squad.
If transfers were coffee, Al Ahly just ordered a double-shot.
Meanwhile, the ball keeps rolling—hope it doesn’t roll straight into the goalkeeper's hands.
