Nitz Gradishar
Club: Al Ahly
Ceramica wants to sign Gradishar to compensate for the departure of Fakhri Lakay, who transferred to Libyan club Ahli Tripoli.
A source from Ceramica Cleopatra told FilGoal.com : "Negotiations with Al Ahly regarding the signing of Gradishar stopped after the friendly match against Al Nasr."
He explained, "We are waiting for the final stance and cannot bear more than 30% of the player's annual salary."
Gradishar's salary with Al Ahly in the new season is about one million and six hundred thousand dollars.
Al Ahly signed Moroccan Sofiane Bengedda, top scorer for Maghreb Fez.
They are also close to signing Algerian Monsef Bakr, striker for Croatian side Dinamo Zagreb.
Gradishar played in Al Ahly's match against Cairo's Al Nasr and scored two goals, under the watch of the team's new coach, Moroccan Hussein Ammouta.
Al Ahly will play a friendly against Petrol Asyut on August 5, before traveling to Spain to begin an external training camp on August 6.
Al Ahly also announced a friendly match against Barcelona on August 19 as part of the Joan Gamper Cup.
