Al Ahly director of football adds more intrigue to speculation surrounding Mamelodi Sundowns forward Sirino

Al Ahly director of football Sayed Abdel-Hafiz has commented on the talk linking Mamelodi Sundowns attacker Gaston Sirino to the recently crowned Caf Champions League winners.

Ever since Sundowns coach Pitso Mosimane departed for Al Ahly in October, the talk surrounding a possible move for Sirino has grown louder. Even before Mosimane's move, there had been rumours the Red Devils were tracking the 29-year-old.

This culminated earlier in the week with the Uruguay-born player himself admitting he wanted to team up with Mosimane again. The head coach has already taken Kabelo Rangoaga (fitness trainer) and Musi Matlaba (performance analyst) with him from Sundowns, as well as former Premier Soccer League coach Cavin Johnson.
