Egyptian giants Pyramids FC have made a strong move for Burundian winger Jean-Claude Girumugisha, but their opening bid of $1.5 million has been rejected by Al Hilal. The Sudanese champions remain firm on their valuation of the highly rated attacker and are understood to be willing to sell only if they receive an offer in the region of $5 million. Sources close to the club indicate that Al Hilal are reluctant to lower their asking price, although they could consider a slightly reduced fee if a major European club enters the race for the player.
