"Aboul-Ella has accepted our offer. He should join the club on a two-year deal, but we just need to sort out some details to wrap up the deal," Yehia told FilGoal.com.

The 29-year-old, who came through Zamalek's youth ranks, left the Cairo giants last month after the club opted not to offer him a new contract.

He spent most of last season on the bench but now he has a chance to revive his career with an ambitious Military side.

"Aboul-Ella is a very good player. His versatility will give us plenty of options next season," Yehia added.

Military moved for Aboul-Ella after failing to sign veteran wing-back Tarek Al-Sayed from Tersana.
