Saudi champions Hilal have announced that Ahli ace Mohamed Abou-Treika is close to joining their ranks.

Hilal's official website issued a statement emphasizing that they are set to clinch the signing of the 30-year-old, without providing further details regarding the transfer.

The Blues are aiming to fill in a vacant spot for foreign players, as they already have Swedish winger Christian Wilhelmsson and Libyan playmaker Tarek Al-Taib.

During the past few seasons, Abou-Treika has been linked with a move to Saudi Arabia, but Ahli were often reluctant to sell their star man.

In the same context, Treika revealed on Tuesday that he sees no reason of leaving the Cairo giants.
