The accomplished tactician admitted he is open to the idea of reuniting with the former Witbank Spurs player
Al Ahly head coach Pitso Mosimane has addressed rumours linking the club with Bafana Bafana international Percy Tau.
The speedy attacker recently scored his first goal for Brighton & Hove and Albion, but his future at the English side is reportedly uncertain.
It is believed Tau is not guaranteed game time at Brighton under manager Graham Potter ahead of the new season.
Egyptian champions Al Ahly have reportedly registered their interest in Tau as Mosimane looks to reunite with the 27-year-old attacker having worked with him at Mamelodi Sundowns.
The South African tactician could not confirm or deny the Red Devils' interest in Tau, who has one year left on his contract with Brighton.
"I have a very good relationship with Percy," Mosimane told Soccer Laduma.
"And if he is available, why not? And also, does he want to come back to Africa?
"Can we afford the transfer fee Brighton would demand? And also, would we satisfy his personal terms? If all those boxes can be ticked, then I will have a huge interest on this one."
Under Mosimane's guidance at Sundowns, Tau blossomed into one of the best players in Africa as he played a vital role in helping the Tshwane giants win the Caf Champions League title and PSL championship.
Tau shared the PSL Golden Boot with Rodney Ramagalela and also won the Footballer of the Season and Players' Player of the Season accolades at the 2017/18 PSL awards ceremony.
Brighton snapped up Tau from Sundowns in August 2018 and he was then loaned out to Belgian side SG Union shortly after his transfer having failed to secure a United Kingdom work permit.
The Witbank-born player also spent some time with Belgian giants Club Brugge and RSC Anderlecht on loan from Brighton as he gained European football experience.
The man nicknamed Lion of Judah returned to Brighton in January 2021 after he secured his UK work permit, but he struggled for game time under Potter.
He played just three games in the Premier League for Brighton last season and it remains to be seen whether he will still be a Seagull when the UK transfer window closes on August 31.
