It is understood that Pitso Mosimane, the manager who originally brought him to Sundowns, wanted Sirino to follow him to Al Ahly when he took charge of the record African champions.

"Gaston Sirino is currently listening to all offers and will choose the best one, especially since he has become a free agent at the moment, and certainly if Al Ahly talks to him, he will not delay in agreeing.
