CAIRO: French giants Lyon have made a move to sign Mohamed ‘Gedo’ Nagi in the summer, according to Ittihad chairman Mohamed Moselhi.

“Lyon have contacted us concerning a summer move for Gedo and the offer will be discussed by the board soon, Moselhi, who didn’t mention any details of the offer, told FilGoal.com.

After his scintillating form in the 2010 African Cup of Nations, Gedo has been the subject of intense speculation linking him with several European clubs.

However, the story that made the headlines regarding the Egypt forward’s future was his controversial signing for Zamalek before heading to Angola.

Gedo admitted signing a contract with the Whites in January, shortly before extending his stay with Ittihad until 2011.

Eventually, the Egyptian Football Association ruled in favor of Ittihad in the contractual dispute, only for Zamalek to insist they ‘will not give up on their rights’.

It remains to be seen whether the 25-year-old will be able to move elsewhere, amid Zamalek s firm stance.
