The Russian side is desperate to acquire the services of Abou-Treika during the winter transfer window and will send a representative to Cairo on Saturday.
“The Russian representative will arrive on Saturday with a view of several options to complete Abou-Treika’s move,” an Ahli source, who spoke on condition of anonymity, told Filgoal.com on Wednesday.
Lokomotiv have already made an initial bid for Abou-Treika last week when a club representative met with Ahli marketing director Adli Al-Qayei, who made it clear Ahli were not prepared to let go of the player for less than 5 million euros.
Despite Ahli’s demands, insider reports claimed the Egyptian champions, who previously said they will not let go of any player in the upcoming period, seem ready to sell Abou-Treika if the Russian offer reaches 2.5 million euros, which is half their asking price.
Meanwhile, Ahli sent the transfer license for winger Ahmed Abou-Mosallam to French side Racing Strasbourg via the Egyptian Football Association.
Abou-Mosallam is set to join Strasbourg late next week after settling some personal issues in Cairo.
Midfielder Sayed Abdul-Hafiz is also set to travel to Saudi Arabia on Friday to join Al-Wehda club on a six-month loan.
