The Russian football club FK Sochi confirmed the loan of Moroccan defender Yahya Attiyat-Allah, on Friday, to Egyptian club Al Ahly for the 2024-2025 season.
Prior to entering into the loan agreement, the 29-year-old player extended his contract with Sochi until 2027, according to the statement.
Al Ahly, with 44 Egyptian league titles to its name, obtained a priority option to buy Attiyat-Allah at the end of the loan period.
The deal follows the ongoing restructuring of FK Sochi, which was relegated to the Russian second division after a difficult season.
Attiyat-Allah, who joined FK Sochi from Wydad Casablanca in February in a deal valued at nearly half a million euros, made 11 appearances for the Russian club, scoring one goal and providing three assists.
