Zamalek SC has turned its attention to Hibernian FC’s Rocky Bushiri as the Egyptian club seeks to bolster its defensive options ahead of the closing days of the winter transfer window.
The White Knights, coached by Christian Gross, are actively exploring new signings to strengthen their squad and address recent defensive concerns.
Bushiri, a central defender with dual Congolese and Belgian nationality, has caught the eye of the Egyptian club due to his solid performances in the Scottish Premiership.
Zamalek SC, looking to build upon their current third-place standing in the Egyptian Premier League, has reportedly entered negotiations with Hibernian, with further details expected soon.
The 25-year-old, who previously played for Norwich City and KAS Eupen, has been a standout figure in Scotland, contributing both defensively and offensively.
Over the course of the 2024-2025 season, Bushiri has played 20 matches, accumulating 1,537 minutes of game time.
He has scored twice and provided one assist, showcasing his ability to make an impact at both ends of the pitch.
Given his experience, Bushiri’s potential move to Zamalek SC could provide the defensive reinforcement the club needs, especially following their recent 3-0 loss to Pyramids FC.
The club will be hoping that his arrival can strengthen their defensive line as they continue their campaign.
The transfer window in Egypt remains open until February 8, and Zamalek SC is keen to make use of the final days to secure a deal that could improve their squad and provide a boost for the remainder of the season.
