The Dervishes will consider the offer and their final decision will be based on the best interests of the club and Abd-Rabou, the source added.

Ismaili did not disclose the fee offered by Al-Nassr but media reports said it is worth around EGP six million.

The Egypt international midfielder was involved in a tug-of-war between French club Strasbourg and Ismaili as both sides claimed that they own the player.

However, world governing body FIFA ruled in favor of Ismaili, who were given the green light to field Abd-Rabou by the Egyptian Football Association.

The latest news comes as a bit of surprise given Ismaili's persistence to have the 22-year-old midfielder at their disposal for the current season.
