Esteghlal coach Pitso Mosimane is reportedly lining up a sensational move to bring South African forward Percy Tau to the club during the upcoming January transfer window. Tau, currently with Egyptian giants Al Ahly, has been informed that he can leave the club following discussions about a mutual contract termination.
Al Ahly is expected to honor the remainder of Tau’s contract as part of the termination agreement, paving the way for the forward to seek new opportunities. This development has sparked interest from several top clubs, with Zamalek SC and Kaizer Chiefs emerging as potential suitors for Tau’s signature.
However, Mosimane, who previously worked with Tau at Al Ahly and Mamelodi Sundowns, is reportedly keen to reunite with the talented attacker at Esteghlal. Mosimane’s deep knowledge of Tau’s abilities and his trust in the player could make Esteghlal an attractive destination for the 29-year-old forward.
Tau, known for his versatility, pace, and eye for goal, could provide a significant boost to Esteghlal’s attacking options as they push for domestic and continental success. His potential move to Iran would also mark a new chapter in his career, bringing him into a competitive league under the guidance of a coach who has consistently backed him throughout his professional journey.
The coming weeks will be pivotal in determining Tau’s next destination, with Mosimane’s Esteghlal keeping a close watch as the January window approaches.
