Al Ahly, Ghazl El Mahalla and Mahmoud Salah
Thursday
Al Ahly have completed the signing of 18-year-old Ghazl El Mahalla prospect Mahmoud Salah on a five-year contract. The Egyptian club announced the deal shortly after Youssef Belammari suffered a serious cruciate ligament injury during preseason preparations.
Salah becomes Al Ahly’s sixth summer signing as the club continues strengthening its squad before the new campaign. Al Ahly are separately pursuing Petrojet left-back Tawfik Mohamed as a more direct solution to the defensive gap created by Belammari’s injury.
