The Egypt FA confirmed in a statement that: ''Ramandan Sobhi is undergoing a medical screening to move to Huddersfield Town and will return [to Italy] this afternoon.''
The 21-year-old joined Stoke from Egyptian champions Al Ahly back in 2016, and signed a five-year contract extension last year.
However, Stoke failed to avoid relegation to the Sky Bet Championship, and a move to Huddersfield means that Sobhi will be able to continue playing in the English top flight.
Egypt will launch their World Cup campaign against Uruguay on 15th June, before taking on hosts Russia on 19th June and Saudi Arabia on 25th June.
