Al Ahly boss Marcel Koller has reportedly made a decision on whether or not he would like to trade coaching Percy Tau for the likes of Neymar, with Saudi Pro League giants Al Hilal believed to be interested in his services.

According to KingFut, Saudi giants Al Hilal are one of the two sides who are interested in snapping up the 62-year-old tactician.
The Blue Wave currently sit in second place in the Saudi top flight, a point behind reigning champions Al Ittihad, but after an off-season that saw them bring in the likes of Brazil's all-time top goalscorer Neymar, Morocco No. 1 Yassine Bounou and Senegal captain Kalidou Koulibaly, rumours suggest that they are not pleased with the performances produced by Jorge Jesus' men so far this season.
As such, Al Hilal is now said to be considering sacking the Portuguese manager and have identified the Club of the Century's head coach as his potential successor.
Koller arrived in Egypt at the beginning of last season and has already led the Red Devils to five trophies, most notably their record-extending 11th CAF Champions League title, and it is these achievements that have consequently garnered the attention of teams in the Saudi Pro League, with manager-less Al Shabab also believed to be interested in securing his signature.
However, according to the same report, the Swiss tactician is not eager to make the move to the Gulf state, and wants to continue his project in Cairo.

Koller is also said to have signed a new two-year extension with the Red Devils during the off-season, making an exit unlikely.
