Al-Ahly Secure 3 New Signings in Summer Transfer Window 2026
Egyptian giants strengthen squad ahead of 2026-2027 season with key additions across all positions
Al-Ahly SC has moved decisively in the opening weeks of the summer transfer window, securing multiple signings as the Egyptian Premier League giants prepare for the 2026-2027 season. The Egyptian Football Association officially opened the registration period on June 21, with clubs permitted to finalize deals until August 15, 2026. Al-Ahly, determined to maintain domestic dominance and compete strongly in African competitions, has already concluded several important transfers.
Ahmed Hamdy Joins from Zamalek in Major Transfer
One of the most notable moves of the window is the acquisition of Ahmed Hamdy, a creative playmaker who crossed the Cairo divide from Zamalek to Al-Ahly. Hamdy, known for his vision, passing range, and ability to unlock defenses, has signed a three-year contract with the Red Devils. The transfer represents a significant coup, as players moving directly between Egypt's two biggest clubs are rare and always generate intense interest among supporters.
Hamdy's arrival adds depth and creativity to Al-Ahly's midfield. The playmaker is expected to compete for a starting role in manager Marcel Koller's preferred formation, offering a different tactical dimension with his ability to operate between the lines and supply decisive passes.
Mohamed Mustafa Medo Reinforces Defense
Al-Ahly has also addressed defensive needs by signing Mohamed Mustafa Medo from Smouha SC. The center-back, one of the most consistent defenders in the Egyptian league in recent seasons, signed a three-year deal. Medo brings experience, aerial strength, and composure on the ball — qualities that fit well with Al-Ahly's possession-based approach.
The 26-year-old is viewed as a long-term investment who can form a formidable partnership with existing center-backs. His ability to play out from the back aligns with Koller's tactical philosophy.
Ahmed El-Arabi and Ahmed El-Sayed Add Depth
In goal, Al-Ahly secured Ahmed El-Arabi from Ghazl El-Mahalla on a three-year contract. The goalkeeper brings solid Egyptian Premier League experience and will provide healthy competition for the starting spot. Midfielder Ahmed El-Sayed has joined from Tanta on a four-year contract, adding further quality to the midfield ranks. El-Sayed, a central midfielder, is known for his work rate, ball recovery, and ability to transition play quickly.
The club is also reportedly in talks with striker Houssam Hassan to bolster attacking options before the window closes. Hassan would add pace and direct running to the forward line.
Summer Transfer Context in Egyptian Football
The 2026 summer transfer period, running from June 21 to August 15, has seen all major Egyptian clubs actively strengthening. Al-Ahly's approach has been methodical — targeting specific positions rather than making splashy signings. This strategy reflects the club's philosophy of building sustainable success through careful squad planning.
For Libyan football fans following Egyptian football closely, these transfers are particularly relevant as Al-Ahly remains one of the most popular Arab clubs across North Africa. The club's performances in the CAF Champions League and Egyptian league are followed intently in Libya, where football culture runs deep.
What These Signings Mean for the Season Ahead
With the new Egyptian Premier League season approaching, Al-Ahly's early business signals their intent to retain the league title and make a strong push in continental competitions. The additions of Hamdy in midfield, Medo in defense, and options in goal and central midfield give Koller a deeper, more versatile squad to rotate across a demanding season.
Al-Ahly's rivals in Egypt and Africa will be watching closely. The club's ability to secure quality additions early in the window, before the crucial pre-season training period, could prove decisive when the season reaches its critical phases.
As the transfer window continues, more moves are expected. Al-Ahly fans will hope the recruitment team maintains this momentum, delivering the reinforcements needed to keep the Red Devils at the pinnacle of African football.
