Rahamin 'Klemi' Saban, (born February 17, 1980 in Netanya), is an Israeli football defender.
Klemi began his career in Maccabi Netanya and then played for several teams - Hapoel Tel Aviv, Hapoel Petah Tikva FC and Maccabi Haifa- in Israel before joining Romanian club Steaua Bucuresti on June 28, 2006.
Saban was signed by Steaua Bucureşti in June 2006, and was set to become the first Israel to play in the Romanian Divizia A. But he ended up staying on the bench for Steaua's league opener and didn't make his league debut until August 5, 2006. By then, Kobi Nachtailer had already become the first Israeli to play in the league because he started his club's (FC Vaslui) first match of the season.
His club debut came earlier though when he featured in a UEFA Champions League qualifying match against ND Gorica. Saban was responsible for Steaua's last goal of the match as he was tripped up in the penalty area and the official gave Steaua a penalty kick that sealed a 3-0 victory for them.
Saban is a member of the Israel team for whom he won 10 caps. He also won 11 caps of Israel Under 21 squad.
