Mosselhi told FilGoal.com that Soliman will sign a five-year extension, which earns him EGP 200.000 in the first season, increasing by 50.000 each year.

"He is a talented young keeper and will be the future of the team," Mosselhi said.

Soliman came through Ittihad's youth ranks and managed to break into the first team despite signing veteran keeper Samir Ashour.

He has been repeatedly linked with a move to Ahli, even after the Egyptian champions signed Palestinian international Ramzi Saleh.
