Ahli have agreed a deal with Hull City over the six-month loan of Ahmed Fathi and Geddo to the English side, the club's website has confirmed. "Geddo and Fathi are on their way to Hull after a deal had been agreed," football director Abdul-Hafiz said. “Hull were very keen to sign the duo and both of them were also excited to make the move, so we accepted the offer. It's been finalized now and then the transfer shall be official." It is understood that Hull, owned by Egyptian businessman Assem Allam, moved for full-back Fathi after Egypt teammate Ahmed Elmohamady was forced to end his loan spell when he was recalled by parent club Sunderland. Fathi, 28, had a brief loan spell at Sheffield United nearly six years ago as he had also been linked with Queen Park Rangers last year. Hull, who target promotion to the Premier League next season, are currently third of the Championship standings level on 50 points with Leicester City, who have better goal difference.
