Several leading Moroccan clubs, which are engaged in the Champions League and the CAF Cup, are closely monitoring Maali's situation. They hope to take advantage of the chaotic situation at Zamalek to secure his services in the upcoming winter transfer window, especially since a contract termination could make him available without a transfer fee.

The player is seriously considering unilaterally terminating his contract and taking the matter to FIFA to claim his rights and unpaid wages, an option that his representatives consider inevitable if the situation does not improve quickly.
