CSKA Moscow considers signing Hossam Abdelmaguid

Russian club CSKA Moscow is considering submitting an official offer to sign Zamalek SC center back Hossam Abdelmaguid.

According to our information, CSKA Moscow’s offer is expected to be less than $1.5 million while Zamalek officials have set Abdelmaguid’s price at $4 million. However, the Russian club will not pay this colossal sum, especially since the Zamalek defender has not played as much as needed for the Egyptian national team.

CSKA Moscow will not object to an agreement specifying that if the Egyptian international returns to Egypt, he can only return to Zamalek so that officials from the Cairo club can be assured that CSKA Moscow is making a serious offer and not a way for the player to return to Al Ahly.

Abdelmaguid played 41 games for Zamalek SC, scoring two goals and one assist last season.
