"The Belgian officials will arrive next week to open talks with the board. I hope the club will let me go so I could get back to Europe," said Farag to FilGoal.com on Tuesday.

The former Ahli player, who is tied to Ismaili until 2009, confirmed that he is also very committed to the club who gave him a new chance to re-launch his career.

On the other hand Chairman Yehia Al-Koumi revealed that he will pay Strasbourg 500 000 Euros to get Hosni Abd-Rabou permanently. The international midfielder joined Ismaili on loan in July 2006 with an option of a permanent move.

"Abd-Rabou is staying with us. His agent tried to get him offer from other clubs but that won't happen and he will stick with us."
