Huge Libyan Offer Puts Yasser Ibrahim’s Future Under Spotlight
Yasser Ibrahim’s future at Al Ahly has become a major talking point, with the defender yet to reach a final agreement over a new contract and reports of strong interest from Libyan side Al Ahly Benghazi.
According to On Sport reporter Ahmed El-Masry, Yasser has received an offer from Al Ahly Benghazi worth around EGP 70 million per season, putting a significant financial option on the table as he continues discussions with his current club.
Previous reports had put the proposed Libyan package at around $1.5 million per season for two years. At the same time, an Al Ahly source said the club had not received an official offer, while the player acknowledged that negotiations with the Libyan club had taken place but confirmed that he had not signed a contract.
🔥 Yasser Ibrahim Nears Return to Training
Away from the transfer situation, Al Ahly have received positive news regarding Yasser’s fitness ahead of the upcoming derby.
The defender suffered an internal ligament sprain and an external ligament tear in his ankle and has been following a rehabilitation program under the supervision of the club’s medical staff.
Ahmed El-Masry reported that Yasser is expected to return to full team training on Friday, which could significantly increase his chances of being available for the October 11 clash with Zamalek. Previous reports had already indicated that he was nearing a return to group training.
⭐ The Zamalek Derby Could Be Crucial
Yasser’s return would be particularly important for head coach Hussein Ammouta, given the defensive concerns surrounding Al Ahly ahead of the derby.
Earlier reports suggested that Yasser Ibrahim and Hady Riyad were the preferred defensive pairing for the Zamalek match before Yasser’s injury cast doubt on his availability.
With the defender now approaching a return to full training, his chances of featuring have improved, although the final decision will depend on his physical condition after completing team sessions.
📢 Contract Renewal Remains a Major Issue
Yasser’s situation is not limited to the Zamalek derby. His contract with Al Ahly expires at the end of the current season, meaning he could leave as a free agent if an agreement over renewal is not reached.
Recent reports indicate that Al Ahly have offered the defender a renewal package worth EGP 25 million plus EGP 10 million in bonuses and incentives, while the player has yet to make a final decision.
The reported Al Ahly Benghazi offer would represent a significantly higher financial package, creating an important decision for the defender as he considers whether to remain in Cairo or pursue a new challenge in Libya.
🏆 Will Yasser Ibrahim Stay at Al Ahly?
Yasser Ibrahim is now facing an important period in his career, combining his race to return for the Zamalek derby with a major decision over his long-term future.
Al Ahly remain keen to retain the defender because of his importance to the squad, while reports about the Libyan offer remain contradictory. The club says it has not received an official bid, while other sources have reported active discussions between Yasser and Al Ahly Benghazi.
Will Yasser Ibrahim renew his contract with Al Ahly, or will Al Ahly Benghazi’s huge financial offer convince him to start a new chapter? 🔥🔴
