Percy Tau might only return to Sundowns under ONE condition

Al Ahly forward Percy Tau has been rumoured with a return to Mamelodi Sundowns for months.

The 29-year-old Bafana Bafana star is currently in his last season with the Red Devils. The Egyptian giants, however, appear to be very keen to extend his stay.

Despite Sundowns, Percy Tau is also linked to a move to Al Ahly rivals Zamalek.

“Zamalek has done well in the transfer period by signing quality midfielders. If there are more signings in the summer, Zamalek will return to its natural strength and compete for all the trophies,” Zamalek legend Ahmed Mido was quoted on Kingfut.

Tau might opt to stay at Al Ahly and not return to Sundowns

“I hope Percy Tau joins Zamalek. The Zamalek board should fight to sign him because his contract with Al Ahly is nearing its end.”

Tau left Sundowns as a Champions League winner and added more titles since joining the Red Devils in 2021. A move to Zamalek is highly unlikely given where the club is compared to their main rival. A move back to Chloorkop might happen only if the star feels the need to return home.

Percy Tau might still have the desire to move back to Europe. The 29-year-old failed to impress during the Africa Cup of Nations earlier this year and might look at the Club World Cup as his chance to redeem himself. If Sundowns wins the CAF Champions League, Tau might fancy a move back to PSL, but only if.

Lion of Judah might still have dreams of returning to Europe

Should the Red Devils retain the Champions League, chances are the “Lion of Judah” will also stay and compete in the Club World Cup. The Bafana star is one of the team’s highest-paid players, so if he is to leave, Downs needs to pay.

Tau is likely to stay for another year or two and if he doesn’t return to Sundowns, he might play football in the Middle East.
