Report: Liverpool's Oussama Assaidi to join Al-Ahli

Liverpool are on the brink of selling Moroccan winger Oussama Assaidi to Dubai-based Al-Ahli for £4.7m, according to reports.

The 26-year-old moved to Anfield from Heerenveen in 2012, but only made six starts and six substitute appearances during his first season at the club before spending the last eighteen months on loan at Stoke City.

According to The Liverpool Echo, Assaidi's season-long loan spell at the Britannia Stadium is to be terminated so that he can make a permanent move to the Middle Eastern club.

Assaidi's opportunities have been limited under Potters manager Mark Hughes this term.
