Ahly Tripoli has officially denied that Egypt's Al Ahly Sporting Club made any formal approach to sign Libyan midfielder Mustafa Shkshak during the current transfer window. The statement, published by Al-Watan Sport, comes amid growing speculation about the player's future after his impressive performances on loan at the Libyan club.
Abduljabbar, a senior official at Ahly Tripoli, told Al-Watan Sport in exclusive remarks that "no formal negotiations have taken place from Al Ahly's side to sign Mustafa Shkshak." The clarification puts an end to weeks of rumors linking the 24-year-old playmaker with a move to the Cairo-based giants.
The Libyan international's journey to Tripoli began when he joined Ahly Tripoli on a five-month loan deal from Egyptian club Petrojet (Enpi) earlier this season. The loan deal was reportedly worth approximately $350,000, a significant sum for a temporary arrangement in the Libyan Premier League.
According to sources close to Petrojet, the club's president confirmed in statements to WinWin that Shkshak's move to Ahly Tripoli has now been made permanent. The transfer fee was set at $1.6 million, marking a substantial profit for Petrojet after just five months of the player's services.
A source at Petrojet revealed further details about the collapsed Al Ahly deal, stating that "the negotiations between the two clubs did not reach an advanced stage, and Ahly Tripoli moved quickly to secure the player on a permanent basis." The source added that Petrojet was satisfied with the $1.6 million fee, calling it "a distinguished financial outcome" given the short duration of the loan period.
Meanwhile, Al Ahly's interest in Shkshak was never officially confirmed by the club's board. The Cairo giants had reportedly explored the option of signing the Libyan international as part of their midfield reinforcement plans, but no formal offer was ever submitted to either Petrojet or Ahly Tripoli.
The Shkshak transfer saga is significant for Libyan football on multiple levels. First, the $1.6 million fee represents one of the highest transfer payments in recent Libyan Premier League history, signaling that domestic clubs are willing to invest seriously in talent retention. Second, the fact that a club of Al Ahly's stature — Africa's most decorated football institution — showed interest in a player plying his trade in Tripoli is a testament to the improving quality of the Libyan league.
For Libyan fans, the news that Shkshak will remain at Ahly Tripoli is a major boost. The midfielder has been instrumental in the team's campaign this season, contributing both goals and assists from his central role. His decision to stay, facilitated by the permanent transfer, gives the club stability in their push for domestic honors and potential continental competition qualification.
With the transfer window still open, Ahly Tripoli will be keen to build on this momentum by retaining their core squad and potentially adding new signings. For Shkshak, the permanent move provides the platform to continue his development in a competitive environment while remaining close to the Libyan national team setup.
Al Ahly, meanwhile, will need to explore alternative options in the midfield market as they continue their pursuit of domestic and continental titles. The club's transfer committee is expected to announce new signings in the coming weeks as they prepare for the second half of the season.
Football analysts across North Africa will be watching closely to see whether this transfer window marks a turning point for the Libyan Premier League's ability to attract and retain top regional talent — a development that could reshape the football landscape across the Maghreb.
