Serie A is now tracing the footsteps of Aliou Dieng, the 26-year-old midfielder from Al Ahly. As the summer transfer window looms, Dieng’s future is becoming a subject of keen interest, with Genoa expressing a substantial interest in the player who emanates a sense of reverence on the Egyptian football scene.
Amidst the aura of holiness surrounding Al Ahly, Dieng, whose contract extends until June 2026, has attracted attention from Serie A outfit Genoa. Furthermore, Serie B leaders Parma Calcio are rumored to be monitoring the situation closely, poised to make a move should they secure promotion to the top tier.
Having weathered unsuccessful attempts at a move to Turkey and experiencing a decline in prominence within the ranks of Al Ahly, the Malian international is now seeking an amicable conclusion to his Cairo adventure.
Al Ahly’s management, open to a transfer, has set a valuation of no less than €5 million for the midfielder, a figure reflecting the club’s insistence on securing a fair deal.
Despite facing challenges in the current season, Dieng, a product of Djoliba AC’s training, and his representatives are actively engaging with European clubs in pursuit of a summer transfer.
Valued at €4.50 million on the Transfermarkt site, the Torokorobougou-born player has the potential to yield substantial returns for Al Ahly, considering the club’s initial investment of €1 million to secure his services from MC Algiers in the summer of 2019.
As Serie A clubs keep a watchful eye on Aliou Dieng’s trajectory, the upcoming transfer window promises intriguing developments that could reshape the midfielder’s career and leave an indelible mark on the football landscape.
