Rami Shaaban spoke to EP about his trial at Tottenham Hotspurs and his belief that the Czech keeper Cerny was unfairly preferred to him.

Rami Shaaban had spent some time at the North London side on trial, and is convinced that he impressed the coaching staff. "They were very happy with me and the coaches wanted me," he told EP. The former Arsenal keeper had told EP previously that this was an ideal move for him, as he still had connections and a flat in London.

However, Spurs announced the signing of Czech keeper Radek Cerny from Slavia Prague soon after, to quash any chances of Shaaban's dream move.

Rami was not happy with this transfer, as it seems that the move was sparked by business interests rather than football. "Unfortunately it's all about business and it became clear that the CEO of Spurs, Mr Levy, has stocks in a company which also owns the Czech team, so it's actually as if they bought their own keeper," he indicated.
