African Five-a-side
John Obi Mikel's "Black Tax", the portrayal of Emmanuel Adebayor and a chat with Didier Drogba - African Football Round-up
01 Dec 2023
In this episode we'll revisit John Obi Mikel's appearance on Rio Ferdinand's podcast where he talks about family manipulation. From there we trace some of the challenges star African footballers face on a day-to-day basis and why that can make them vulnerable, but also capable of much more than your average footballer.Side note: Apologies for not releasing a podcast last Monday, I was in Tunis on a shoot for the Africa Cup of Nations. As a result, we're going to skip an African Five-a-side podcast this Friday and pick it back up next week.
