Al Ahly Terminates Contract with Mostafa El Badry by Mutual Consent – Player Joins Petrojet

Just hours before the closure of the summer transfer window, Al Ahly has officially terminated its contract with Mostafa El Badry by mutual agreement, effectively resolving the player’s future after his return from loan.

Free Transfer to Petrojet

Shortly after terminating his contract, El Badry signed a two-year deal with Petrojet on a free transfer. The signing took place in the presence of his agent, Ayman Galal, as the player begins a new chapter in search of regular playing time and a fresh start.

A Necessary Move Before Deadline

Al Ahly management was keen to finalize El Badry’s situation before the window closed. Keeping him on the club’s secondary list would have obligated the club to pay his full contract value, despite him being out of the team’s plans. Therefore, both sides agreed to part ways to avoid any financial burden.

No First-Team Appearances for Al Ahly

El Badry originally joined Al Ahly from El Entag El Harby a few seasons ago but failed to make a single first-team appearance. He spent most of his time out on loan, most recently at Smouha, before returning to the club this summer and ultimately departing on a free transfer.

Al Ahly's League Opener

Meanwhile, Al Ahly is preparing to kick off its Egyptian Premier League campaign with a match against Modern Sport, scheduled for 9 PM next Saturday at Cairo International Stadium.

In the second round, Al Ahly will face Pharco, also at Cairo Stadium. The opening 10 rounds of the season feature several high-profile clashes, including a meeting with Pyramids FC in round five and the long-awaited Cairo derby against Zamalek in round nine.
