Egypt striker Amr Zaki has all but wrecked his chances of playing again in England an amazing rant.

Zaki has ruined any slim chance he had of moving to Portsmouth by insisting he will not play alongside players of Israeli or Algerian descent.

Zaki's comments come on the back of Egypt's controversial World Cup Play-Off clash against Nadir Belhadj and Hassan Yebda's Algeria which the Pharaoh's lost 1-0.

Zaki is quoted by the Portsmouth News saying: "I refused their offer before, but now joining Portsmouth is no longer an option for me.

"After Portsmouth signed an Israeli player (Tal Ben Haim) and also hired an Israeli football director (Avram Grant), a possible move was ruled out.

"On top of that, no way could I play at Portsmouth with an Algerian (Nadir Belhadj) within in their ranks."
