Al-Saied reportedly put pen to paper on Monday, one day after Ahli beat Zamalek 2-0 to win the Egyptian league title, Al-Ahram newspaper said in its Tuesday issue.

Neither the club nor the player made any official statement regarding the matter.

Reports claim that Zamalek defender Mohamed Sedik is also on the verge of signing for the Red Devils.

The contracts of both Al-Saied and Sedik with Zamalek run out at the end of this season.
