The fans have their say

We all know the usual rumors and this one is interesting. Apparently both Ibrahim Sa3eed as well as Amr Zaki are being offered to go on trial for a week with Sheffield and should all go well, the offer is 2 million pounds for Zaki and 200,000 pounds for Sa3eed (mostly due to his contract ending at season’s end). If this is true, it would alleviate a big part of Zamalek’s financial problems as well as give these two players a great chance to further their professional careers. - Rami

I was just seeing the programm of ahmed shobier on dream where Ibrahim was there… and he said that the offer is real and he hoped that everything goes well…. the guy is desperate for any cash… he said that he sold his car, he and other players, inorder to get some cash for living……..this is really getting very bad for zamalek… cant believe that the second biggest club in misr cant pay his players the salaries… hope they can get back on track… - the_pharoan

every month there is an offer - fulham or new castle, manchester city, and now we’re hearing sheffield united…this story is getting really old - if this is a real offer - then sell him now so the media can finally stop with the amr zaki stories…if this is a fake - then the saga continues - mvp1ne
