After Finishing Top Scorer, Benjdida Lands at the Red Castle

Sources close to the deal have revealed the details of Moroccan forward Sofiane Benjdida's transfer to Egyptian club Al Ahly, after a final agreement was reached with Maghreb Fès, with the total cost of the deal reported at around $2.5 million, while the Fès club had initially demanded between $3 and $4 million. Benjdida (24) has signed a three-year contract with Al Ahly, following an outstanding season in which he finished as the Botola Pro's top scorer with 20 goals in 31 appearances, playing a decisive role in Maghreb Fès's title triumph — their first league championship in 41 years. The move represents a significant attacking addition for Al Ahly, who are banking on the talent and remarkable finishing Benjdida displayed throughout last season.
