The 26-year-old, who stressed that he wants to leave Teeside, didn’t show up for the start of Middlesbrough's off-season trainings last week

His behaviour was met by angry reaction from the Middlesbrough board, as they decided to fine him with £100 thousand.

However, Mido's brother Tamer Wasfi told FilGoal.com that the former Ajax and Marseille hitman will be returning to the club's trainings by Saturday.

Mido spent the last six months on loan at Wigan Athletic.

Meanwhile, Middlesbrough's official website confirmed that both Mido and Egypt midfielder Mohamed Shawky will not take part in the club's friendly against Macclesfield Town.

Shawky was given a prolonged rest by manager Gareth Southgate after the latter played with the Pharaohs in the Confederations Cup and in the Rwanda qualifier.

Middlesbrough were demoted from the English Premiership last season, and the Egyptian duo are looking to leave the club in order to secure Premiership football.
