Al Ahly pulls the plug on Bololo bid as wage demands derail a transfer showdown
Al Ahly has halted negotiations with Congolese forward Afimiko Bololo after salary demands proved untenable. Bololo’s contract with Polish club Jagienlonia Bialystok ends soon, with a ceiling reportedly at $600,000 per year. The club had offered around $1.3 million annually, but Bololo’s camp pushed for up to $1.8 million, ending talks. The coach still eyes offensive reinforcements, while the team prepares for the Egypt Cup clash against Al Mokawloon Al Arab.
