Football Planet
In this week’s edition, we look at the subject of ‘money or quality’ in the recent move of African players to Asia. We ask how huge the exodus of top players including Africans to the Chinese League is.
The world’s topmost football leagues has new rivalry, the Chinese Super League, which was formerly less regarded.
The league is now shaping how much clubs spend on players and leading the discourse on whether it can even come down to quality or money.
We will also be looking at the hosting of the 2018 CHAN in Kenya which is under threat as the country struggles to prepare for the games.
