Ahli are interested in signing Sfaxien striker Blaise Kouassi, said media reports in Tunisia on Friday. Assabah newspaper said that the Egyptian champions joined the race to sign the Ivorian forward, who is also coveted by Sudan's Al-Merriksh, Belgian Lokeren and UAE side Hata. Kouassi netted ten times for Sfaxien in this season's Confederation Cup campaign, including two goals in the first-leg of the final against Merriksh themselves. He is the tournament's joint top-scorer. Sfaxien are on the brink of the title after registering a resounding 4-2 away victory.
