The case of the duo Marwan Othman Otaka and Ieltsin Camões remains open at Al Ahly. According to a source close to the club, management has yet to decide whether to trigger the purchase options or simply keep the players on loan until the end of the season.

Uncertain future for Al Ahly’s attacking duo

The same source emphasized that it’s still too early to decide on the future of both players, with the club waiting for the final assessment from the technical staff led by Danish coach Jess Thorup.

Otaka joined Al Ahly on loan from Ceramica until the end of the season, with a purchase option. Meanwhile, the club secured the Angolan forward Camões from Tromsø (Norway) on a six-month deal for $360,000, with a buyout clause set at $1.8 million.

The management prefers to avoid rushing into a final decision on both cases to prevent making a financial commitment without being certain of the technical value they bring.

Notably, Otaka has so far scored just one goal since joining, while Kamoyesh is yet to find the back of the net in five appearances.
