Zamalek are reportedly in negotiations with ZED FC to secure the signing of 25-year-old defender Mohamed Ismail.
The Confederation Cup winners have initiated talks with ZED FC regarding Ismail’s transfer and are prepared to make an offer for the defender if terms can be agreed upon according to local reports.
Mohamed Ismail joined ZED FC last season from ENPPI and had an impressive debut season with the newly promoted club.
He made 27 appearances, playing a crucial role in helping the team finish seventh in their first season in top-flight football and reach the final of the Egyptian Cup.
Zamalek have already made three signings for the upcoming season, bringing in Moroccan left-back Mahmoud Bentayeg, Palestinian striker Omar Faraj, and ENPPI left-back Mohamed Hamdi.
The White Knights will kick off their season with a tie against Kenyan club Police FC in the CAF Confederation Cup’s round of 32 before they face Al Ahly in a CAF Super Cup Cairo derby on September 27th.
