Ismaili and Egypt starlet Ahmed Hegazi says he is waiting for his club to accept a €1.5million bid from Serie A side Fiorentina over a January move. “Fiorentina made a €1.5million offer and I hope Ismaili would allow me to make this big move,” the Egypt international center-half told reporters. “I am ready to give up all my late dues with Ismaili in order to complete this transfer. It's a dream move for me. “I think the Italian league suits me as it is more defensive and physical.” Hegazi dazzled for Egypt in the U-20 World Cup in Colombia earlier in 2011, before earning a place with the senior team in a friendly against Brazil last month. The 20-year-old, who played every minute in Ismaili's league campaign so far this season, was part of the Egypt U-23 team that qualified for the 2012 Olympic Games. He has been approached by Spanish Liga side Granada in the summer but the Dervishes blocked the move.
