China’s Tianjin Teda signs Malick Evouna for $8M, from AL AHLY SC

Chinese side Tianjin Teda agreed to Al Ahly’s 8 Million (USD) counter offer for Gabonese striker Malick Evouna.

Malick Evouna is on his way to Holland for a medical tests.

The transfer was the most expensive in Egyptian football history and although Evouna, who usually partners Dortmund’s Pierre-Emerick Aubameyang in Gabon’s attack, made a slow start, he then proved his worth with some convincing displays.

He scored 12 goals, four short than Egyptian league top scorer Hossam Paolo of Smouha, and created four others in 24 appearances to help Ahly wrestle the title from Cairo rivals Zamalek.

Evouna, 23, was at times criticised for his prolificacy but his blistering pace and physical attributes made him a constant menace to opponents.

The league goals he scored included a remarkable one against Zamalek in the Cairo derby last February when he ran half the length of the pitch, bamboozled three defenders and placed a shot into the bottom corner.
