Al Ain UAE ends controversy and resolves Sufyan Rahimi’s future

Ahmed Al Shamsi, director of football at Emirati club Al Ain, has denied all reports confirming that his club’s management has received external offers to include Sufyan Rahimi in the current summer transfer window.

Ahmed Al Shamsi said in statements to the media: “What is being said about Sufyan Rahimi and his departure to the Saudi League is just media speculation, and the player is attached to his contract with the Emirati club.”

Al Ain football director added: “Sufyan Rahimi is under contract with Al Ain in the United Arab Emirates and it is too early to talk about his future with the team.”

Sufyan Rahimi is tied to Al Ain, with a contract until June 2025.

Rahimi was able to write his name in gold letters during a fabulous season with Al Ain, which ended with the victory of the most expensive Asian Cups, scoring 13 goals, including 8 goals in the round of 16.

The top scorer of the Paris 2024 Olympics, the star of the Emirati team Al Ain, was also able to win the AFC Champions League best player award, in addition to the tournament top scorer award.
