Ahli defender Ahmed Al-Sayed reiterated that he was going to extend his stay at the Cairo club, and denied refusing to sign a new deal as recently rumored. It was said that Ahli didn't to meet the 28-year-old's financial demands, which raised doubts over his future with the Red Devils. However, Al-Sayed reaffirmed his commitment to Ahli, and assured that money is not an issue for him. "Renewing my contract is only a matter of time, we are still negotiating and trying to work out the details of the deal," he told FilGoal.com. "But money will never be a reason for me to move away from Ahli." Al-Sayed's current contract runs out by the end of the season. Chance On whether his talks with Ahli's officials resulted in his lack of appearances lately, Al-Sayed said: "No one plays all the time, and I'm not really bothered by that. "I was named for Ahli's recent matches, I just wasn't given the opportunity to take part. "As a matter of fact I have a substantial chance to start in the upcoming matches, thanks to Ahli's new formation." Ahli boss Hossam Al-Badri has been employing a 4-4-2 formation since his appointment in the summer. He usually deploys Wael Gomaa and Sherif Abdul-Fadil in the heart of defense.
