According to Bild newspaper, Zidan
will be transferred to Borussia Dortmund as part of
exchange deal. Striker Mladen Petric will join HSV while
Egyptian Zidan will move to Dortmund to work again with
his favorite coach Jurgen Klopp.
It seems that Zidan will not rust on the bench for
long. The Egyptian won't spend another season waiting
for a few minutes every 2-3 matches to play. Zidan will
join his favorite coach Jurgen Klopp at Dortmund as
part of exchancge deal.
As EP reported a few hours ago, Martin Jol said some
vague statements regarding Zidan and that he should
concentrate more on football if he wants to stay at
Hamburg. Jol also revealed that he is looking for a
striker to play next to Guerrero and all this confirm
what German newspaper Bild claimed.
If both clubs agreed on transfer details, Egyptian
striker Zidan will be the new Dortmund hitman while
the Croatian 27 year old Mladen Petric will join HSV.
While HSV proved to be a major side in the Bundesliga
this season, this will not matter much for Zidan as
he won't be a key player in the team. In Dortmund, Zidan
and Klopp will be re-united, the Godfather Klopp can
do wonders with Zidan as the former Mainz coach helped
the Egyptian score 22 times in 44 games.
Zidan has been always criticized for acting in a childish
way when dealing with coaches, but Klopp was an exception,
he knew how to get the best out of Zidan and how to keep the
Egyptian happy, confident, and in top form.
Both clubs should finalise this deal within 24 hours. EP
