The Red Devils won't be looking to far for a replacement as they aim to sign Stade Brestois defender Achraf Dari, who plays in the French top-flight.
KingFut have reported that coach Marcel Koller does not want a local replacement for Abdelmonem, hence the club going abroad for a new defender.
Daris' agent Abdellatif Flifli confirmed the two clubs are in talk over a potential, with the French club open to selling the defender.
"There are indeed negotiations between Al Ahly and our side, and they are advanced. We hope for a positive outcome. I can't discuss more details than that," the agent told ONTime Sports.

"Brest signed Ashraf Dari for a very large sum, and they are open to selling the player, but there are conditions. If Al Ahly can agree to those conditions, it would be good.
"The conditions are in place because Ashraf is a very big name and an international player with Morocco. We want to ensure the best outcome for him."
