"Everything has been agreed upon. The agreement is suitable to both parties, the club and the player," Ahli said in a statement on their website.

"The contract details will be announced in a press conference right after the end of the season."

Hassan's deal with Belgian champions Anderlecht is due to expire at the end of the season.

Ahli have seemingly beaten off competition from arch-rivals Zamalek, who were looking to strengthen their midfield with the capture of the 32-year-old midfielder.

Successful End

Hassan enjoyed a very successful ten-year spell in European football, which is a relatively long tenure for any Egyptian footballer abroad.

The former Ismaili man played in Turkey for Kocaelispor, Denizlispor, Genclerbirligi and Besiktas.

He joined Anderlecht in 2006, winning with the club one Belgian League title and two Super Cups.

Hassan opted to return to Egypt due to family reasons to put an end to a highly-successful adventure in Europe.
