Mido for Tampines

Tampines Rovers has reportedly chosen their marquee player and he is none other than Egyptian international Mido.

The 29-year-old has an impressive resume in the past having played for a number of big name European teams like Ajax, Roma, Marseille and Tottehham Hotspurs.

At the same time, it also show his problem as he moved clubs virtually every year and since 2008, the clubs looking for him are like his current employer Barnsley, currently in the Championship, who are taking a gamble on him to prove himself once more.

And usually they failed as this season he has only played 1 competitive game for Barnsley and they are looking to let him go since he is not performing.

He is reportedly earning GBP 4,000 a week (SGD 32,000 for a month pay range).

Mido has scored 20 goals in 51 appearances for the Egypt national team but he has not been called up since 2009.
