Omar Abdulrahman

A good move and will be boost for our profile in the UAE in general. We will expect a few more players from all over Asia in the next couple of years.

Sounds like a good idea.
 
This is definitely a case of "who you know" and not "what talent i have"

But after what the sheik has done for us, he can do whatever he likes!

I wouldn't blame him. After all, it is his country that he wants to progress and help the talents they have. If he has the means, why not !!
 
I take it an agreement still hasn't been made between us and Al-Ain. Or maybe Bobby doesn't want him.
 
Not sure if this has been posted.

Omar Abdulrahman will stay at Al Ain for 2012/13

Al Ain will step up attempts to conclude the acquisition of two foreign players now the future of Omar Abdulrahman, the club's coveted playmaker, has been resolved.

The Emirati was the subject of interest from Manchester City following accomplished performances for the UAE Olympic team and last week completed a two-week trial with the English Premier League champions.

Abdulrahman, 20, returned to Al Ain despite impressing the City management, and the conclusion to the speculation surrounding him has allowed the Pro League champions to focus on recruitment.

Al Ain will now push forward deals for one Europe-based and one Asian player as they seek to replace Yasser Al Qahtani and Ignacio Scocco, key players in last season's title triumph who have since left the club.

"We were waiting to see what was happening with Omar," a spokesman at Al Ain said. "It looks like he's staying this season, which is [good] news for the club and a huge boost in helping us retain the league and in our Asian Champions League bid, although I would expect him to be playing European football within three years.

"He's the most talented Emirati player and now, following his trial with City, is the best-known UAE player outside the country."

According to this HE turned US down, not vice versa:

Also, can't believe a talent like Nir Biton is still stuck in Israel after this transfer window. Even if we didn't want him he looked good enough for any league in Europe.
