Bafana Bafana star Percy Tau has reacted for the first time since his move to Egyptian giants Al Ahly.  The former Brighton & Hove Albion striker chose social media to express his feelings further to this transfer.

The 27-year-old made headlines when he put pen to paper on a move from English Premier League side Brighton & Hove Albion to Al Ahly in Egypt this week.

The move reunites Percy Tau with his former Mamelodi Sundowns coach Pitso Mosimane who now runs the show in Cairo.

Tau has become just the second ever South African footballer to play for Al Ahly (after Phakamani Mahlambi). And he is the third South African to play in Egypt (after Gift Links).

Tau was quick to thank his former employers, Brighton. And he also posted a tweet wearing his new Al Ahly team colours.

Thank you @OfficialBHAFC for giving me the opportunity to be a part of the Club.

I’m proud of my journey and very proud of my time at Brighton. You gave me the opportunity I never imagined growing up in Witbank. pic.twitter.com/RqUmTKZJJi
