Zamalek is close to signing right-back Ahmed Eid from Al-Masry SC during the summer transfer window.
Zamalek Club is making significant progress in the negotiations to sign Ahmed Eid, the distinguished right-back of Al-Masry SC, during the current summer transfer window. Sources close to the club confirm that Zamalek’s management is giving high priority to this deal, which aims to strengthen the team’s right flank in preparation for the upcoming season.
Strong Desire from Zamalek to Sign the Player
The well-known sports broadcaster Ibrahim Abdel-Gawad, during his program "Mal3ab On" on ON Sport channel, confirmed that Zamalek is firmly committed to signing Ahmed Eid. He indicated that the club is seeking to finalize the deal as soon as possible and clarified that the transfer will be a standalone deal, not involving any player exchanges with Al-Masry.
Al-Masry’s Moves and Goalkeeper Situation
Al-Masry had shown interest in acquiring Zamalek goalkeeper Mohamed Awad, especially with the possibility of their current keeper Mahmoud Gad moving to Pyramids FC. However, Zamalek’s recent signing of young goalkeeper Mohamed Sobhi has stalled these efforts, as Awad decisively decided to stay at Zamalek and rejected the idea of leaving, which disrupted Al-Masry’s plans regarding their goalkeeper roster.
Zamalek Prepares to Strengthen Its Squad Strategically
With the goalkeeper situation settled, Zamalek continues its active efforts to complete the signing of Ahmed Eid, which is expected to give the team a strong boost defensively. The management views Eid’s signing as a strategic step within its plan to reinforce all key positions in the squad, especially given the intense competitions awaiting Zamalek both domestically and continentally.
Expected Impact of the Signing on Team Performance
Ahmed Eid’s arrival is expected to elevate Zamalek’s defensive line, thanks to his experience and both defensive and offensive skills. Fans of the White Castle eagerly await that this signing will be the first of a series of well-planned acquisitions aimed at boosting the team’s ambitions to reclaim titles and achieve significant successes in the upcoming season.
