CAIRO: Wigan Athletic chief executive Brenda Spencer reportedly set to arrive in Cairo soon to hold talks with Zamalek officials over signing Amr Zaki on a permanent basis.

Reports in England said Wigan want to wrap up the deal as fast as possible after several top flight clubs showed interest in the Egyptian hit man.

Big-spenders Manchester City have unveiled intention to land the Premier League top scorer.

Liverpool coach Rafa Benitez said he is keeping an eye on Zaki, who scored a remarkable brace at Anfield on Saturday.

Zamalek set a price tag of £six million for the 25-year-old striker earlier this year but as Zaki takes England by storm, his price might jump to the double.

Zaki was absolutely scary, he put in a wonderful performance, Bruce was quoted as saying after the 3-2 defeat to Liverpool.

When you produce a display like that, the last thing you want to happen is to finish on the losing side.
