Also Chelsea, Atlético Madrid, Lyon and Inter Milan were all keen to have the player on trials, but his management did not want to masquerade the player at various club trials.[3]

Hearts and Portsmouth FC agreed and signed papers in the matter of Jebrin transferring to Portsmouth FC via a club in Belgium from the 1st January 2009.[3] Jebrin was entered in an educational program in Belgium and also in England, fully paid for by Portsmouth. The plan was to loan him out to a Belgian club and was later loaned out to S.V. Zulte Waregem.[4]
