The 17-year-old forward is poised to enhance the attacking lineup of Barça Atlètic, which is under the guidance of coach Juliano Belletti. Abdelkarim, who is celebrating his 18th birthday today, may travel to Barcelona next week to finalize his transfer, as reported by media outlets in Egypt.

Prolonged Negotiations Conclude

Although discussions have taken longer than anticipated, recent reports indicate that the management of Al-Ahly has agreed to accept Barcelona’s latest proposal, made during a meeting on January 1st.

• Sale Percentage Increase: The percentage for any future transfer has risen from 10% to 15%.
• Purchase Option Adjustment: The initial fee set at €1.25 million for a loan period from January to June will now be €1.5 million.
• Rising Variables: Additional contingent fees have also increased, potentially reaching up to €5 million.

Abdelkarim played a crucial role in bringing this transfer to fruition, having expressed a strong desire to join the Catalan club. This move would mark a significant milestone, as he would be the first Egyptian player in the history of FC Barcelona.
