Ahead of the CAF Confederations Cup clash between Enyimba and Zamelek, the media coordinator for Zamalek Ahmed Shawky, has confirmed that the Egyptian club is in negotiations to sign Sergio Ramos.
The former Real Madrid and Spain captain is currently a free agent after leaving Sevilla this summer.
In an interview with ESPN, Shawky expressed interest in bringing the 2010 FIFA World Cup winner to Zamalek.
"Some agents and mediators offered the opportunity. Sergio Ramos is of course a great player who won everything with Real Madrid and Spain. He would be a huge player for any team in the Middle East or Africa," he stated.

Despite the potential financial hurdles, Shawky believes that signing Ramos would be a significant boost for both Zamalek and Egyptian football.
"It would be a huge boost for Egyptian football, more prestige for Zamalek and the league," he said.
