Ahli have received an offer for midfielder Hassan Mostafa from a Qatari side, the Egyptian champions said on Tuesday. The Cairo giants received an official fax from a Qatari club inquiring about the possibility of a one-year loan for the energetic midfielder, Ahli's official website reported. “The offer will be presented to the football committee and discussed with the coaching staff to take the decision that will best serve the club and the player,” said marketing director Adli Al-Qaeyi.
The reigning African champions could be open to letting Mostafa go given the abundance of players in his position. With Mohamed Shawki ensured of his place in the starting line-up this season, Mostafa had to battle it out with Hossam Ashour, Anis Boujelbene, Akwetey Mensah and Ahmed Hassan for the other holding midfielder spot. The 27-year-old has scored only once for Ahli in their league campaign this season.
