Ramez Jamal Dayoub (Arabic: رامز جمال ديوب; born 9 August 1984) is a Lebanese former professional footballer who played as a defender. A former Lebanon national team player, Dayoub played in Lebanon, Myanmar, Bahrain, and Malaysia, before being banned from practicing football in 2013 due to his involvement in the Lebanese match-fixing scandal.

Club career

Starting his career at Safa, it was reported that Dayoub had moved to I-League side East Bengal in summer 2009.[2][3] However, the transfer eventually fell through,[4] as Safa didn't issue his International Transfer Certificate (ITC),[5] and the player returned back to Lebanon.[6]

He subsequently moved to Myanmar at Yangon United a few months later, playing in an official game,[7] but it was revealed in November that the transfer was carried out using forged documents.[8] Dayoub was suspended indefinitely by the Lebanese Football Association (LFA).[7]

On 11 November 2010, Dayoub moved to Al-Shabab in the Bahraini Premier League after FIFA approved of the transfer.[9] Dayoub played in the 2011 Myanmar National League for Magway.[10] In December 2011, he joined Selangor FA ahead of the 2012 Malaysia Super League.[11][12][10]

On 26 February 2013, Dayoub was found to be involved in the 2013 Lebanese match-fixing scandal: he was accused of illegal betting on several national and continental games involving Lebanese teams and the national team. Dayoub was banned from football for life and fined $15,000.[13] In view of the decision, Selangor FA had the player's registration with the Football Association of Malaysia annulled.[14]

International career

Dayoub debuted for the Lebanon national team on 3 October 2004,[15] in a 3–1 defeat to Kuwait in a friendly.[16] Dayoub participated in the 2010 and 2014 FIFA World Cup qualifiers, and the 2011 AFC Asian Cup qualifiers, as well as the 2007 WAFF Championship and 2009 King's Cup.[15]

In the final round of the 2014 World Cup qualifiers, Dayoub was involved in throwing the game against Qatar.[14] He was accused of match fixing and was suspended for life from football.[13] Dayoub ended his international career with 34 caps.[15]
