According to Africafoot, negotiations between Emirati club Al Ain and RS Berkane for the transfer of Baba Bello Ilou have progressed significantly in recent days. After rejecting an initial offer estimated at $1 million from Al Ain, the management of the Moroccan club has increased its demands and is now asking for $1.5 million. Africafoot reports that RS Berkane’s executives have also demanded the inclusion of a 20% sell-on clause in the future contract. According to the outlet's sources, the champions of the United Arab Emirates are getting closer to accepting the conditions set by RS Berkane. Discussions between the two parties are continuing positively, and the transaction is now at an advanced stage. Unless there is a last-minute change, the striker is expected to continue his career in the United Arab Emirates. The next few hours could be decisive in finalizing a definitive agreement between the two clubs.

Emirati club Al Ain has submitted a $1 million offer to RS Berkane to sign Cameroonian striker Baba Bello Ilou during the summer transfer window. The bid comes after the forward's remarkable season on loan at Hassania d’Agadir, where his performances in the Botola Pro established him as a standout attacker. Al Ain, the recent winner of the UAE's championship and cup, aims to strengthen its attack with a young player who has significant potential. The club is monitoring the situation and hopes for a quick agreement with RS Berkane, who now must decide on the player's future amid growing interest from other Gulf clubs.
