Al Ahly's Winter Push for Congo's Bololo
The football department at Al Ahly has intensified negotiations with Congolese striker Afimiko Bololo of Jagiellonia Białystok, aiming to sign him in the upcoming winter transfer window.
A well-placed source inside the club told Kooora that Bololo, who has Angolan roots and represents the Congo national team, has become the frontline option to bolster the club’s goalscoring line.
The club is weighing several forwards for the position in January, with Bololo at the top of the shortlist.
Officials noted that Bololo’s contract with his Polish side runs out at the end of the season, and Al Ahly has begun direct talks with the player and his representatives to settle annual terms exceeding $1.2 million.
The source also stressed that the club has backup options should the deal falter, especially as Bololo has drawn interest from other leading Polish league clubs.
Finally, the talks aim to sign two attackers in January, one senior and one younger player, to provide both experience and future planning.
Bololo, who has Angolan roots and represents the Congo national team, would bring pace and physicality to the frontline.
Al Ahly aims to seal the deal before Bololo’s current contract ends, while keeping alternative targets as a safety net.
Punchline: If speed really kills, Bololo might be the last man standing in this transfer window.
Punchline 2: The winter market is heating up so much, even the footballs are wearing sunscreen.
