Mahmoud Saber makes Rangers transfer claim as 'new Mo Salah' reveals signature battle

Egyptian wonderkid Mahmoud Saber claims Rangers have made him a transfer offer after taking the decision to depart Cairo giants Al-Ahly.

The 18-year-old winger, who can also operate comfortably at full-back, has been called the new Mo Salah, following an impressive start to his fledgling career.

He's opted not to sign a new deal with Al-Ahly and is effectively a free agent and that's alerted plenty of top clubs in Europe and beyond.

And Saber has revealed Rangers are one of the cubs showing interest.

He said: "Because I have never signed a professional contract with Al-Ahly, I am deemed an amateur player and can sign for a new club for nothing.

"I have offers from Rangers in Scotland, Valencia in Spain and Benfica from Portugal as well as a big club in Tunisia. I will make my decision soon.

"I have European agents sorting my future and I hope to be in a position to sign for my new club shortly."

Saber was linked with a move to Stoke City last year after netting eight goals and thirty assists to help his side win the Egyptian youth league.

And the Egypt Under 20s international is set to continue his career away from Cairo.
