Footballers are slaves. I know this from the personal experience of being a footballer.

I do not feel that I have a mandate from the entire world of football - the fans, the players, the clubs, the people who live, breathe and love football.

Liverpool have won everything but never a World Championship. I am sure in the future they will once again make the effort to win the tournament. They have had good rhythm in the Premier League this season.

Why is it good for football to take the excitement away from fans by overcharging them for tickets to see their team?

There is a movement in club football, which I don't necessarily consider a prime example of solidarity, because it leads us to conclude the rich are getting richer and they are using everything in the market to create an exodus from Africa.

Football is hope. To be a better human being but also hope one day, one day, to leave your country to be somewhere, let's say admired, as a football star.

All religions, they play football - even nowadays all girls and women have the right to play football in cultures like the Arabic countries in the Muslim they play football.
