Mohamed Zidan’s father, Abdullah Zidan, has claimed that Manchester United, Arsenal and Barcelona have all contacted his son over a possible move in the summer.

"Arsenal, Manchester United and Barcelona have talked to Mohamed's agent," he told Dream TV.

Zidan scored once and created a number of goals for his team-mates in the Africa Cup of Nations as Egypt won their third straight title and their seventh in the tournament's history.

Abdullah also revealed that Zidan has a clause in his contract which enables him to complete a move to any of these clubs at the end of the season.

Zidan made headlines in June when he scored twice against Brazil in Egypt's 4-3 defeat in the Confederations Cup. He has so far scored twice for Dortmund this season, besides the several assists to club top scorer Lucas Barrios.
