Abd-Rabou's Rayan offer rejected

The Dervishes came to a decision in no time as they said on Tuesday that the offer for the midfield marvel will be taken into consideration.

"We are not ready to sacrifice players like Abd-Rabou and Hani Saied at the moment," coach Emad Soliman told FilGoal.com on Wednesday.

Saied, whose contract runs out next year, was approached by Al-Wakra, but Ismaili blocked the move as well.

CAN 2008 Player of the Tournament Abd-Rabou is in the midst of a transfer crisis involving Ismaili, Ahli and French Ligue1 side Strasbourg.

A decision from FIFA is awaited to decide on the future of the 25-year-old midfielder, who repeatedly expressed his desire to stay in Ismailia.
