Al Ahly weigh Selim return as rebuild plans gather pace

Al Ahly SC are considering recalling Reda Selim from his loan spell as part of plans to reshape the squad ahead of next season.

The forward, currently on loan at AS FAR Rabat, has returned to the club’s radar following a series of strong performances in Morocco.

Reports suggest Al Ahly’s management have been closely monitoring his progress, with his recent form prompting renewed discussion over a possible return.

The Egyptian club are understood to be exploring options to strengthen their attacking line after what has been described as a disappointing campaign.

Selim’s situation presents a potentially cost-effective solution, as bringing him back would not require the club to pay a transfer fee.

However, any decision will depend on several factors.

The view of the technical staff is expected to play a decisive role in determining whether the player fits into the team’s plans for the coming season.

In addition, Selim’s own preference will be crucial, with the player needing to decide whether to return to Cairo or continue his development in the Moroccan league.

Al Ahly are currently undertaking a broader restructuring process aimed at improving performance and restoring competitiveness.

Part of that strategy includes reassessing players who have spent time out on loan, particularly those who have shown strong form away from the club.

Selim’s resurgence has therefore placed him firmly back into consideration at a time when the club is seeking balance between new signings and internal solutions.

As the summer transfer window approaches, discussions over his future are expected to continue, with both the club and player weighing their options.

The outcome will form part of Al Ahly’s wider efforts to rebuild and strengthen ahead of the new season.
