Seaman last played a match in January 2004 for Manchester City

Walsall boss Paul Merson has revealed that he failed in a bid to sign former England goalkeeper David Seaman for Friday's FA Cup tie at Merthyr Tydfil.
Regular keeper Andy Oakes is injured and Sunderland have refused permission for on-loan Joe Murphy to play.
"Clubs don't want to loan goalkeepers out and get them cup-tied," Merson told Walsall's official website.
"I contacted David's agent but he took out insurance when he retired that means he can't play again."
