Al Ahly coach Pitso Mosimane has confirmed that he would like to be reunited with Percy Tau and bring his England-based protégé to Cairo to the reigning Caf Champions League champions.
While Mosimane conceded that he would like to bring the 27-year-old to Egypt in what would be one of the biggest coups in continental football‚ the coach admitted that Brighton must be willing to sell and Al Ahly must be able to afford him as he will not come cheap.
“Yes‚ I would like to sign Percy if Brighton agree to sell him. But first we must be able to pay him and if we can pay him‚ he must come and show that he is the king of the jungle.”“Percy has been in Europe for about four years and let’s be honest‚ we haven’t seen him play. We saw him play football in Belgium but SA teams can [compete] against those Belgium teams.
“At Al Ahly we can compete and we can go toe-to-toe with Bayern Munich‚ who took 75 minutes before they scored a goal against us‚ and that means we are a credible team. If Al Ahly can be the third biggest team in the world and beat a South American team that represented the whole of South America [at the Club World Cup] ‚ it means Al Ahly is a good team.
“Percy hasn’t played football and he is approaching 28 years now‚ do you want him to retire without having played football? He has the tag that he is in the EPL‚ but he is not playing in the EPL‚ and they keep on loaning him out.
