Al Ahly 'To Rival' Downs For New Striker

Al Ahly 'To Rival' Downs For New Striker

Both Al Ahly and Mamelodi Sundowns reportedly have serious interest in acquiring the services of a Ghana international striker.

Having contested multiple big games in recent years, the rivalry between Al Ahly and Mamelodi Sundowns is reportedly set to be taken into the next transfer window, with the two African giants said to be competing for a certain forward's signature.

According to GhanaSoccerNet, along with CAF Champions League group-stage rivals Masandawana and Pyramids, the Red Devils are seriously considering signing Jonathan Sowah.

The DStv Premiership champions and the record African champions, in particular, are the main protagonists in the race for the Ghana international, having reportedly received stellar reviews on the attacker in recent months.

The 23-year-old has caught the attention of the continental heavy hitters following his recent exploits in the Ghana Premier League, with his 12 goals in the nation's top division last season helping his Medeama side lift the title for the first time ever.

This form has earned him recent call-ups to the Black Stars of Ghana, recently making his competitive debut for the Chris Hughton-led side in their 1-0 defeat to Comoros in 2026 FIFA World Cup qualification.

The Club of the Century is believed to be very impressed with the pacey forward's performance during their opening Champions League encounter this past weekend. Although Medeama lost that match 3-0, the attacker is said to have been a constant menace for the Ahly backline.
