Al Ahly’s football director Sayed Abdelhafiz said the Red Devils have not yet abandon definitely their target Gaston Sirino.

Al Ahly have seen their first bid rejected by Mamelodi Sundowns as it was too little to convince chairman Patrice Motsepe to let on their midfielder.

However, the Egyptian Premier League is yet to say goodbye to the Uruguayan star as they keep a close eye on him for the transfer window in January.

“I don’t like to discuss transfer talks as they change from one day to another,” Abdelhafiz told ON Time Sports.

“There is a transfer window in January and sometimes negotiations make things go further and closer in the other day. We have to focus on the upcoming game.”
