Zamalek SC defender Hossam Abdel-Magid is considering a move abroad after granting approval for efforts to secure transfer offers from foreign clubs, according to reports linked to the player’s representatives.
The development comes after agent Adam Watani, who is known for working with several Egyptian footballers including Imam Ashour of Al Ahly SC, began exploring opportunities for the Zamalek defender outside Egypt.
Reports indicate that Abdel-Magid has shown a strong interest in pursuing a professional career in Europe, leading Watani to move quickly in an attempt to identify clubs interested in signing the player during the upcoming transfer period.
The defender’s recent performances for Zamalek are understood to have encouraged efforts to market him internationally, with his representatives believing the player could attract attention from clubs abroad.
According to information reported by Batolat.com, Watani has already started making contact with several foreign clubs as part of a strategy aimed at facilitating a transfer outside the Egyptian league should a suitable offer emerge.
The plan reportedly centres on securing a proposal that satisfies both the technical ambitions and financial expectations of the player.
Abdel-Magid has become one of Zamalek’s prominent defensive players in recent months, with his improving form increasing speculation about the possibility of a future move to European football.
While no official bid has yet been announced, the latest developments suggest preparations are already underway behind the scenes for a potential departure from Zamalek if negotiations progress positively.
The situation also places further attention on Adam Watani, whose relationship with Al Ahly’s hierarchy has reportedly become strained in recent months.
The tension stems from repeated comments connected to Imam Ashour and attempts to explore professional opportunities for the Al Ahly midfielder abroad. Those remarks are understood to have created reservations within the Cairo club regarding future official dealings with the agent in certain matters.
Despite those issues, Watani has continued working on opportunities involving Egyptian players and now appears focused on opening a new pathway for Abdel-Magid.
For Zamalek, the possibility of losing one of their developing defensive talents could become an important issue ahead of the next season, particularly if interest from European clubs intensifies.
The Egyptian club has yet to publicly comment on the reports surrounding the defender’s future, while no foreign club has been officially named in connection with a possible move.
However, with the player reportedly eager to test himself outside Egypt and his representatives already approaching clubs overseas, speculation surrounding Abdel-Magid’s future is expected to continue growing during the coming weeks.
