Cameroonian striker Serge Daura is in Cairo to finalise his transfer to Egyptian giants Al Ahly ahead of the winter transfer window closing on 8 February.
The 21-year-old has emerged as one of Cameroon’s brightest football talents, following a stellar season in the domestic league where he scored 15 goals and provided 11 assists in 25 matches.
His performances earned him both the top scorer award and the title of best emerging player of the league.
Daura’s abilities have attracted attention beyond Cameroon. Last summer, Moroccan side Raja Casablanca reportedly showed interest in the striker, but it was Al Ahly that ultimately secured his signature.
The club hopes his arrival will strengthen their attacking options and provide fresh impetus for coach Marcel Koller’s squad.
Known for its rich history and record of success, Al Ahly has long been a destination for top African talent.
Daura’s versatility and goalscoring instincts are expected to make him an immediate asset as the team pursues continued success in domestic competitions and the CAF Champions League.
The transfer is also seen as a positive step in sporting relations between Cameroon and Egypt, potentially paving the way for further cooperation in African football.
For Daura, the move represents an opportunity to showcase his talent on a larger stage. Following his breakout season in Cameroon, he now joins one of Africa’s most prestigious clubs, where expectations are high and the spotlight is brighter.
Fans and analysts alike will be watching closely to see how the young striker adapts to Egyptian football and what impact he can make in Al Ahly’s attack.
With the deal nearing completion, Serge Daura is poised to begin a new chapter in his career and confirm his status as one of the continent’s rising football stars.
