The central defender's current contract will expire next summer but he is adamant he will extend it.

"I will not play for another club after the many years I spent here," Al-Sayed was quoted as saying on Ahli's official website.

"I did not set any conditions to extend my stay. I have no reservations about penning a new deal."

Al-Sayed, a one-club man, follows in the footsteps of versatile midfielder Mohamed Barakat and striker Emad Meteb who also said they were going nowhere.

The 28-year-old wore the captain's armband following the departure of defender Shadi Mohamed to Ittihad in the close season.

He missed Ahli's first three games in the Egyptian Premier League after putting on a lackluster display in the 2-0 Super Cup defeat to Harras Hodoud before being sent off in the season curtain-raiser.

Newly-arrived defender Sherif Abdul-Fadil was coach Hossam Al-Badri's preferred option alongside Egyptian international Wael Gomaa in the heart of Ahli's defense during the past few games.
