Update on Ashraf Ben Sharqi's Future at Al Ahly
Rumors are growing about Ashraf Ben Sharqi's fate at his Egyptian club Al Ahly, especially after their exit from the CAF Champions League.
Ben Sharqi, aged 31, joined Al Ahly in early 2025, and his contract runs through summer 2027.
The club is preparing a wave of changes after a second consecutive African failure.
In this context, Al Ahly has no qualms about selling Ben Sharqi, provided they receive acceptable financial offers.
A club source told Al Youm El Sabe that management would welcome his departure in the upcoming transfer window, citing a dip in form.
He earns a hefty salary, straining the club's treasury, and his frustration grows with being benched.
Ben Sharqi remains among the top candidates to leave in summer 2026, if the money talks loudly.
