“Fathi signed a three-year extension with Ismaili after the first contract, which he signed in July, was turned down by the Egyptian FA,” Al-Menyawi told FilGoal.com.

FilGoal.com learned that the Egypt international put pen to paper on a new contract worth EGP 2.7 million.

The 21-year-old player’s contract has a clause in the contract that allows him to move to Europe if he receives a deal worth $1 million.

He will also be allowed to leave in the second or third season if he pays a fine worth $150,000.
