Nasser Maher’s Move Hinges on a Single Condition

The White's management showed flexibility and preliminary approval.

A source inside Zamalek says midfielder Nasser Maher has one condition to complete his move to Pyramids.

He reportedly asked for 50% of his overdue wages as a prerequisite.

Pyramids want to finish the deal quickly so he can join their UAE training camp.

Zamalek has shown flexibility and preliminary approval to Maher's request to help resolve the club's dues.

The team is training hard ahead of a CAF Confederation Cup group match against Al Masry SC.

The game is at Borg El Arab Stadium in Alexandria at 9 p.m. on Sunday, January 25.

Punchline 1: Money talks in football; Maher is fluent in due-ese.

Punchline 2: Zamalek's transfer policy reads like a subscription plan—pay half now, hope for the rest later.
