Treatment of African players

[Prestwich_Blue]

Just come across this shocking article about the way many African players are treated. Many don't have contracts or, if they do, they are ignored. Many aren't paid for months and struggle to live. Yet FIFA pour millions in these countries so that certain officials can get their votes and we're penalised by UEFA for spending money we have.

Radio 4 did a special report on it last year that alluded to a super agent with links to PL clubs heavily involved in this shameful practice. It must still be on radio player?

Too bloody right it would. As long as someone thought they could get away with it they'd give it a try.
