Egyptian giants Al Ahly are interested to signing Asante Kotoko forward Sogne Yacouba in a big money move to North Africa, according to reports.

The Burkina Faso attacker has been on the radar of the seven times African champions following his blistering form in the CAF Confederation Cup with the Porcupine Warriors.

According to information gathered by GHANASoccernet.com, the Red Devils are ready to make a $1.5 million offer to Kotoko for the services of the player.

It is also believed the Cairo based club will offer the striker an improved salary, which could see him take $15,000 a month.

However, the Ghanaian giants are not ready to lose their most prized asset and are also considering a new deal for the 26-year old.

Yacouba has netted once in the CAF Confederation Cup but has been the tormentor in chief in the Asante Kotoko team.

The Red lie second in Group C of the CAF Confederation Cup and will host Sudanese giants Al Hilal on Sunday in match day 5.
