Perspective
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]
