Despite the many twists and turns that surrounded the transfer of Zaki to the Latics, the deal seems to be on the way to completion by the start of the new transfer window on the 1st of July.

Egyptian striker Zaki will be loaned out from Zamalek for a fee worth £1.5 million for the year long deal. In addition to this, the contract will contain a clause that grants Zamalek £500,000 if Zaki scores 10 Premier League goals. The deal will also let Wigan have the first option to sign Zaki permanently at the end of the loan period for a pre-agreed £4.5 million.

It should be noted that Zamalek will attend an all expenses paid training camp in Wigan next month as part of the loan deal.


It should be mentioned that Zaki is the primary transfer target for Wigan this summer. The club also showed interest in Cisse and Ivan Klasnic as EP reported. However, the Latics already withdrew from Klasnic deal for medical reasons in the past few days. to pave the way for Zaki to be Wigan's hottest transfer this summer.
