Achraf Dari is being linked with a move from Egyptian giants Ahly SC to Swiss champions Young Boys, with the Moroccan centre-back emerging as a potential low-cost defensive option for the Super League side.
The 26-year-old, currently valued at €1.20m, is the subject of transfer speculation on the back of his time in Cairo, with reports listing the probability of a deal as unclear (“?”). With no contract end date publicly indicated in the available data, the possibility of Ahly facing a decision between a sale, an extension or risking him running down his terms has added intrigue to the situation.
Dari joined Al Ahly from French club Stade Brestois 29 in August 2024 after a spell that included a loan to Belgian side Royal Charleroi SC earlier that year. Before moving to Europe, the right-footed defender came through the ranks at Wydad Casablanca, progressing from their U19s to the reserve team and then into the first team, where his market value rose steadily and peaked at €2.5m shortly after his switch to Brest in 2022.
The Casablanca-born defender, who stands at 1.88m, has experience across three different top flights – Morocco’s Botola, France’s Ligue 1 and Belgium’s Pro League – before adding the Egyptian Premier League with Ahly. More recently, his valuation has gradually declined, dropping from €1.8m at Ahly in early 2025 to its current €1.20m, a level that could tempt Young Boys if they are seeking depth or competition at centre-back without a major financial outlay.
While specific recent match details, including opponents and scorelines, are not listed in the provided data, his continued presence in Al Ahly’s squad underlines that he remains a recognised senior option at the back. Should a move to Bern materialise, it would offer Dari a return to European football and a fresh platform in the Swiss Super League to revive his market value and reshape the next phase of his career.
