The 27-year-old is reportedly closing in on a transfer to the African champions despite impressing in pre-season with Brighton
With news that Brighton & Hove Albion forward Percy Tau could be headed to Al Ahly, Africans have taken to their social media pages with varying opinions.

“The deal is expected to be wrapped up tomorrow [on Friday],” reported TimesLIVE.
However, a number of fans have given divided opinions, others feeling Tau did not deserve a move to Egypt and should have stayed in the Premier League with Brighton.

At Sundowns, he won the league title twice and the Caf Champions League once and was named Footballer of the Year in his final season with the club, before moving to Brighton in 2018/
