Arsenal Invincible looks like a new man with gray hair and beard a decade after retiring – and is now selling fruit and veg

AN ARSENAL Invincibles star is looking like a new man with gray hair and a beard a decade later after retiring from football – and he now runs a successful fruit and veg business.

The 47-year-old goaltender played for the Gunners for two years between 2002 and 2004.

He made just five appearances for the north London club.

The Swede, with 16 caps, was part of the Arsenal squad that went unbeaten in 2003/04 but failed to win a Premier League medal.

He was also loaned to West Ham in January 2004 before being sacked by Arsenal in the summer.

He then spent a year in Brighton before playing in Norway and retiring in 2012 with Hammarby IF in his home country.

But a decade after his retirement, now with gray hair and beard, the ex-Prem footballer is in the fresh food business.

His company specializes in supplying the fruit and vegetable segment from Egypt.

Rami Fresh is based in Sweden and offers a range of fruit and vegetables from the best farms in Egypt.

And the mystery footballer can be revealed to be…Rami Shaaban.

Still interested in football, Shaaban is good friends with fellow countryman and ex-Arsenal teammate Freddie Ljungberg.

He was also pleased Arsenal dominated Tottenham in the North London Derby last weekend.

He shared a memoir of Thierry Henry’s iconic knee slip from Arsenal’s 3-0 win over Spurs in 2002 and tweeted: “Today is such a day!”

Shaaban started in the legendary win against Tottenham in 2002, where the game ended 3-0
