ALEXANDRIA: Nader Al-Sayed said that he is in talks with Ittihad manager Taha Basri to join the Alexandrian side next season.
I have a good relationship with Basri and that s why I prefer to join Ittihad, said the former Ahly and Zamalek keeper.
Al-Sayed had a previous spell at Ittihad in 2003 before joining Masri a season later and then he made a big move to Ahly in 2005.
The 36-year old keeper has been out of action since the beginning of the year as he has been released by ENPPI in January.
That isn t a problem as I have been training consistently. I could have missed games for injury or anything else.
As a keeper I m not that old, look at Edwin Van Der Saar, 37, who is excelling with Holland, added Al-Sayed.
The former Egypt number 1 said that he and Ittihad haven t reached a final agreement yet.
But he stressed that he is looking forward to resume his career and nothing will tackle that.
If the deal is to be completed, Al-Sayed will be the fourth keeper in Ittihad s squad that already includes Samir Ashour, Al-Hani Soliman and Emad Fathi.
