The Al Ahly contract renewal file has turned into a major internal operation over the past few weeks, with the club’s administration determined to settle the futures of its players early and avoid entering the final months of contracts, particularly with the January transfer window approaching. 🔴⚽🔥
Al Ahly’s moves have not been limited to the biggest names in the first team. The club has also focused on a number of young talents who are considered an important part of its long-term plans, allowing the club to make significant progress in reorganizing its contract structure and securing several players for the coming years.
According to a source inside Al Ahly, the football department has intensified its efforts to complete as many files as possible through Essam Serag El-Din, head of the contracts department, in coordination with Wael Gomaa, football director. Their work has resulted in several renewals, while three files are still waiting for the final announcement.
8 Contract Files Completed
Al Ahly have so far closed eight player contract files, securing agreements with a number of first-team players as well as young talents.
Hussein El Shahat was among the most prominent players whose future was settled, with his contract extended for two additional seasons, keeping the experienced winger at the club until 2028.
The move reflects Al Ahly’s desire to retain experienced players, particularly because El Shahat has extensive experience with the club and a strong record during his time in the squad.
Taher Mohamed Taher Until 2029
Last July, Al Ahly completed the renewal of Taher Mohamed Taher after reaching an agreement to extend his contract for two years, keeping him tied to the club until 2029.
The renewal is part of the club’s policy of maintaining players who remain within the coaching staff’s plans and ensuring squad stability for the coming seasons.
Emam Ashour.. Long-Term Contract Until 2030
The Emam Ashour file received particular attention from Al Ahly’s administration given the midfielder’s importance to the team.
Negotiations ended with an agreement to extend his contract until 2030, ensuring the club retains one of its key midfielders for a long period.
The move reflects the administration’s commitment to the player and its desire to retain the core members of the squad.
Marwan Attia Joins Ashour
Only a short time after announcing Emam Ashour’s renewal, Al Ahly completed another midfield contract after reaching an agreement with Marwan Attia to extend his deal until 2030.
The two players are now tied to Al Ahly on long-term contracts, with both considered important parts of the team’s structure.
This gives the coaching staff and club administration greater stability regarding the future of the midfield.
Al Ahly Also Secure Their Young Talents
Al Ahly’s work has not stopped with established first-team stars. The administration has also prioritized several young players who could have greater roles with the team in the coming years.
The club extended Karim El-Debes’ contract until 2030, while also renewing Mohamed Abdallah’s contract with an improved financial package reflecting his promotion and presence within the first-team plans.
Al Ahly also secured the future of Omar Sayed Moawad by extending his contract until 2030, continuing the club’s policy of protecting its young talents before they reach the final stages of their contracts.
Mostafa Shobeir.. Latest Completed Renewal
Mostafa Shobeir was the latest player whose contract renewal was officially announced by Al Ahly, after the club completed negotiations with its goalkeeper and extended his deal until 2029.
The announcement came on September 1, closing one of the files that had involved discussions over the details of the new contract.
The renewal also secures Shobeir’s continued presence with the club for the coming seasons as part of Al Ahly’s future squad structure.
Mohamed Hany.. Talks in the Final Stages
Despite completing several renewals, Al Ahly are still working on a number of contracts, most notably that of Mohamed Hany.
Negotiations between the two sides are progressing positively, with agreement already reached on several details. Discussions are currently focused on certain contract clauses, particularly appearance percentages and financial incentives.
Al Ahly are determined to keep the right-back because of his importance to the team and his long experience at the club, although the official renewal announcement has yet to be made.
Yasser Ibrahim.. Mutual Desire but Details Delay Agreement
Yasser Ibrahim is also among the contracts that have not yet been officially completed, with both the player and the club expressing a desire to continue their relationship.
Negotiations are focused on the financial terms and other details of the proposed new contract, while Al Ahly remain keen to reach an agreement that satisfies the player and keeps him within the team’s defensive structure.
Yasser Ibrahim’s current contract expires at the end of the season, making an agreement increasingly important as the club wants to avoid allowing the player to enter a period in which he could freely negotiate with other clubs.
Kabaka.. A Priority Young Talent
Ahmed Khaled “Kabaka” is the third file still awaiting completion after Al Ahly opened negotiations with the player to secure his future as part of the club’s young-talent project.
Talks have progressed with the two sides moving closer to an agreement, similar to what happened with several young players whose contracts were recently extended.
However, the official announcement confirming the agreement has not yet been made.
Al Ahly place particular importance on Kabaka’s future because he is considered one of the club’s promising long-term players alongside Mohamed Abdallah, Karim El-Debes and Omar Sayed Moawad.
Why Are Al Ahly Acting Early?
Al Ahly’s strategy of completing contract renewals early is designed to maintain squad stability and prevent key players and young talents from entering the final months of their contracts without a clear plan for their futures.
Settling contracts early also helps the club maintain its squad structure and avoid contractual disputes that could affect technical stability during the season.
Final Decision Awaited on Remaining Files
After completing eight renewals, Al Ahly supporters are now waiting for the final decisions regarding Mohamed Hany, Yasser Ibrahim and Ahmed Khaled “Kabaka”.
The football department is expected to continue negotiations with the three players in the coming period in an effort to reach final agreements before the contracts enter more sensitive stages.
The club’s main objective appears to be completing as many files as possible early, giving the coaching staff greater stability and securing players who are important for both the present and future of the team.
Al Ahly Plan for the Future
Al Ahly’s activity in the renewal market reflects a clear desire to build a stable squad for several years, combining experienced players with young talents.
Renewing the contracts of players such as Hussein El Shahat, Emam Ashour and Marwan Attia, while also securing several young talents, gives the club more room for long-term planning without constant contract uncertainty.
Completing the three remaining files would therefore represent the final major step in this phase of Al Ahly’s contract restructuring plan.
✨ Al Ahly have completed eight contract renewals and are still working to finalize the deals of Mohamed Hany, Yasser Ibrahim and Ahmed Khaled “Kabaka” as part of a wider strategy to maintain squad stability and secure the club’s future. 🔴🏆🔥
📢 Which file do you expect Al Ahly to complete first: Mohamed Hany, Yasser Ibrahim or Kabaka?
