Egyptian sports media personality Khaled El-Ghandour stirred discussions among Egyptian football fans after posting a question on his official Facebook page about the possible return of Palestinian striker Wissam Abu Ali to the Egyptian Premier League. Abu Ali, who previously played for Al Ahly, left a strong impression during his time in Egypt.


El-Ghandour wrote:
"Will Wissam Abu Ali return to the Egyptian League once again?"
The post ignited speculation, especially given the player's recent links to multiple clubs.


Pyramids Enters the Picture
According to media reports, Pyramids FC has initiated serious talks with Abu Ali in an attempt to sign him during the current summer transfer window. The club seems keen to capitalize on the complicated situation at Columbus Crew, where Abu Ali currently plays.


The main issue lies in Major League Soccer’s (MLS) salary cap rules, which prevent Columbus from registering the player unless another squad member departs. This opens the door for a potential transfer, either within the U.S. or to another league abroad.
Trabzonspor Joins the Race
Meanwhile, the "Football Palestine" account on X (formerly Twitter) revealed that Turkish club Trabzonspor has entered negotiations to sign the player on loan. The club is reportedly interested in strengthening its attacking options ahead of the new season.
Given Abu Ali’s previous experience with Al Ahly and his proven ability to perform under crowd pressure, he is considered a suitable target both financially and technically.


A Difficult Position for the Player
Currently, Wissam Abu Ali finds himself in a challenging situation—a talented forward unable to be registered by his club due to administrative limitations, while several clubs are actively monitoring his status.
As interest continues to grow, a decision must be made soon—either Columbus Crew resolves the registration issue or the player moves elsewhere. Options include a return to Egypt, a move to Turkey, or even a potential transfer to the Gulf region.


Coul He Return to the Egyptian League?
A return to the Egyptian Premier League wouldn't be surprising. Abu Ali has not ruled out the possibility, and fans still recall his impact with Al Ahly. Pyramids FC could offer him the right balance of competitive ambition and financial support.
With the transfer window closing soon, the question posed by El-Ghandour remains relevant:
"Will Wissam Abu Ali return to the Egyptian League again?"
Only time—and a few more negotiations—will tell.
