Shikabala says he has been offered a one-week trial at Tottenham Hotspur, but Zamalek have ruled out the possibility of letting their star man go.
The link with Tottenham has been there since last months Military World Games in Brazil, Shikabala said.
I hope Zamalek would allow me to go on trial. There is no shame in it, given the reputation of the club and the caliber of the English Premier League.
If Zamalek agreed to let me go, I think it would be a good compensation for previous offers they had rejected from Anderlecht and Shabab of Saudi Arabia.
Zamalek’s assistant coach Ismail Youssef simply said that Shikabala is not for sale and we are not willing to lose one of the teams top player.
