Ismaili chairman Nasr Aboul-Hassan revealed that his side will sign Essam Al-Hadari at the end of the season, irrespective of any punishments FIFA impose on the international goalie. Ahli claimed on Friday the world governing body have banned the sion keeper for four months and fined him €900,000 for violating his contract with the Cairo giants. However, Aboul-Hassan assured that Ismaili will run the rule over Al-Hadari in the summer, even if Ahli's allegation is substantiated. "We have agreed personal terms on a summer deal, and he (Al-Hadari) has already penned an initial agreement," the coastal club president told Egyptian Radio. "We won't back out of the deal no matter what." On Al-Hadari's alleged sanctions, Aboul-Hassan said that FIFA imposed a fine on Sion, and not on the 36-year-old goalie as claimed. "Al-Hadari hasn't been fined, only Sion were punished," he said. "We will sign him even if he gets suspended for four month starting next season." FIFA confirmed earlier on Saturday that a decision was made over Essam Al-Hadari's case, but it's yet to be unveiled.
