It has been claimed that Al Ahly manager Marcel Koller's issue with South African star Percy Tau is "not technical" ahead of his potential departure.

The 30-year-old appears to have lost his standing at the Club of the Century in the second half of this season.
Tau, formerly of Mamelodi Sundowns, has missed several matches for the Red Devils in recent weeks as Ahly claimed the Egyptian Premier League title for the 44th time.
The South African has been strongly linked with a departure from the side, with rumours suggesting he and Koller are currently not seeing eye to eye.
Egyptian media figure Mohamed Al Leithi has suggested that the Swiss' issue with Tau has nothing to do with the player's ability, and that the pair might need to resolve their problems should no club come in for him with an adequate offer.
"Percy Tau is not in the calculations of Marcel Koller, Al Ahly's technical director, at all," he said, according to Ahly News.
"Koller asked Al Ahly's management to look for an offer for Tau this summer, as soon as possible, to include a suitable foreign alternative.
"Koller confirmed to the team official that the problem with Tau is not technical, but he is quick to anger, and he was performing strongly when he was committed to training.
"In the event that there is no offer for Tau to leave, a session will be held between Koller and the player to settle the atmosphere because there will be no other solution."
