Percy Tau, the South African football star, has left Al Ahly, the Egyptian giants, to join Qatar SC. Tau's departure was met with emotional farewells from fans and colleagues alike. He enjoyed a successful tenure at Al Ahly, winning 12 major titles before moving on to a new challenge in Qatar.
Percy Tau , the star player for Bafana Bafana , delivered an emotional farewell to Al Ahly fans after leaving the Egyptian giants to join Qatar SC. The 30-year-old attacking midfielder is expected to earn a significant salary of R16.8 million per month at the eight-time Qatar Stars League champions. Fans across Africa, including several sports celebrities, wished Tau well, while some Egyptian fans expressed their sadness at his departure.
Tau spent three and a half seasons with Al-Ahly, where he achieved remarkable success, winning 12 major titles. Before joining Qatar SC, he reflected on his time at the club, stating, “Together, we have won and celebrated 12 incredible championships. I am really pleased to have achieved all the great accolades with you without saving a single drop of sweat. Leaving is never easy, but I carry with me memories of joy, triumph and unity for representing The Club of the Century with this generation of great players. This isn’t a goodbye but a heartfelt see you later.”Tau's departure from Al Ahly was linked to several clubs in Asia and South Africa, including the Soweto giants. While he was earning $1.2 million (R23 million) annually at Al Ahly, his new contract with Qatar SC reportedly offers him a monthly salary of R16.8 million, representing a significant increase. Social media was flooded with reactions from Egyptian fans expressing their fondness for Tau and wishing him well in his future endeavors. Local fans also held him in high regard, having given him a hero's welcome in December 2024. Tau has since joined Qatar SC, currently eleventh in the Qatar Stars League.
