The Egyptian winger, 23, was close to moving to Getafe on deadline day. The two clubs had agreed to an initial loan move with a fee of €350k to be paid now and with a €3.5m obligation to buy fee next summer. However, Pyramids wanted closer to €1m for the loan fee and a 40 per cent sell on clause, which killed the deal. Getafe’s sporting director Ruben Reyes confirmed that negotiations had stopped and the transfer would not be implemented.
