Percy Tau, who has attracted interest from numerous clubs across Africa, has indicated that a transfer is imminent and that he could announce his new club at any moment.
The experienced player, whose contract was terminated by Qatar SC, has been a free agent for some time.
Tau had joined Qatar SC from Al Ahly, but his stint lasted only half a season. The fact that such a high-profile player suddenly became a free agent sparked intense transfer speculation, with clubs like Kaizer Chiefs and Orlando Pirates reportedly interested.
However, according to the latest reports, Tau is now very close to signing with Egyptian club Zamalek. While Al Ahly were crowned champions of Egypt this season and FC Pyramids won the CAF Champions League, Zamalek are aiming to stay competitive in the upcoming season.
To bolster their squad, Zamalek appear to be on the verge of securing Tau’s services, in what would be a significant signing ahead of the new campaign.
