Mounsef Bakrar: Al Ahly Linked With Move for Dinamo Zagrebs Algerian Striker

Mounsef Bakrar, the Algerian centre-forward currently at Dinamo Zagreb, is being linked with a move to Egyptian giants Al Ahly as the Cairo club assesses options to strengthen their attack.

The 25-year-old, who plays in Croatias SuperSport HNL, is under contract with Dinamo until 30 June 2028, meaning any deal would likely require a substantial fee rather than a cut-price opportunity. Bakrar is currently valued at around 3 million, a figure that offers an early indication of the scale of investment Al Ahly may need to commit if they decide to push ahead with a formal approach.

Al Ahly, competing in Egypts Premier League, have increasingly targeted players from European clubs in recent windows as they look to deepen their squad for domestic and continental campaigns. A move for Bakrar would fit that strategy, bringing in a forward already established in a European top-flight environment.

For Dinamo Zagreb, interest in a key attacking player still tied to a long-term deal would present a delicate decision, balancing sporting ambitions with the financial realities of the market. Bakrars age and contractual security place the Croatian side in a strong negotiating position should talks advance beyond the exploratory stage.

With Bakrar settled at Dinamo and his contract running for another two years beyond this season, any transfer is likely to hinge on Al Ahlys willingness to match Dinamos valuation and the players appetite for a move to North Africa. For now, the Algerian forward remains a Dinamo Zagreb player with his future formally committed to the club until the summer of 2028.
