This came after his standout performance in the 2026 World Cup finals with the Egyptian national team.
The report added that O'Neill, who is evaluating several options to strengthen the midfield before the start of the new season, is very interested in the possibility of signing the Al Ahly midfielder.
The former Ghazl El Mahalla and Zamalek player joined Al Ahly in the summer of 2023, coming from Danish club Midtjylland.
Ashour scored two goals in the 2026 World Cup, the first against Belgium with a rocket shot, and the second against Australia with a powerful header.
