Barakat, 18, is being watched by Ahli and ENPPI, who both expressed interest in signing him from the Alexandrian side.

"Officials from Ahli and ENPPI have contacted me and asked to sign Abdul-Rahman, but Smouha must approve the transfer first," Amer Barakat, the youngster's father, told FilGoal.com.

"He prefers Ahli because of the popularity of the club, in addition to a meeting we had with Ahli U-18 coach Amr Anwar."

Barakat is currently with Egypt U-20 team in London ahead of the FIFA World Cup on home soil next month.
