Ahly attacking midfielder Abdallah El-Saied has committed his future to the club after signing a three-year contract extension on Wednesday, Al-Ahram's Arabic news website reported.

El-Saied, Ahly's top scorer with eight league goals this season, is the latest among a host of players to renew their deals with the African champions, with only Egypt right-back Ahmed Fathi remaining to extend his contract.

El-Saied, 28, joined the Reds in the summer of 2011 from bitter rivals Ismaily, who had to transfer-list their prized asset at the time due to financial difficulties.

Ahly had to pay a fee in the region of LE7.5 million in addition to a one-year loan of Algerian playmaker Amir Sayoud to the Dervishes in return for the services of Egypt international El-Saied.
