Achraf Dari has emerged as a transfer target for Swiss side FC Zürich, with the defender rumoured to be weighing up a possible move away from Egyptian giants Ahly SC.
The 26-year-old Morocco centre-back, currently valued at €1.20m, is being linked with a switch from the Egyptian Premier League to the Swiss Super League, according to data compiled on 2 February 2026. The reported probability of the deal remains unclear, listed only as “?”, underlining that discussions are at an early and speculative stage rather than an advanced negotiation.
Dari’s situation at Ahly could attract further interest, with no contract start or expiry dates recorded in the available data, raising the possibility that he could move on relatively freely or edge towards free-agent status in the near future. FC Zürich are monitoring the market for experienced defenders, and a player with European and African pedigree at his price bracket would fit a value-focused recruitment model.
The Casablanca-born defender, who stands at 1.88m and is predominantly right-footed, joined Al Ahly FC from Stade Brestois 29 after a spell that included a loan to Belgian club Royal Charleroi SC. Before moving to Europe, he came through the ranks at Wydad Casablanca, progressing from the club’s U19s and reserves into the first team and establishing himself in Morocco’s top flight before stepping up to Ligue 1 with Brest.
His market value has fluctuated over his career, peaking at €2.50m during his early period in France and gradually declining to €1.20m by December 2025, reflecting a career that has already experienced several twists across Morocco, France, Belgium and now Egypt. That trajectory may encourage Zürich, who could see an opportunity to revive his stock in a new environment.
Should a move materialise, a switch to the Swiss Super League would offer Dari another chance to reassert himself in European football and potentially reshape the next phase of his career.
