ASIA TO AFRICA: TRANSFERT - NICHOLAS ANELKA CANNOT PLAY IN ALGERIA


Algerian professional football league has refused to issue a waiver that would have allowed Anelka to evolve under the colors of a local club.



Anelka in Algeria, it should not be. Instances of Algerian football refused to issue an exemption to the former French international Nicolas Anelka to allow him to play in a club of Algiers, said Monday the president of the Algerian League of professional football. "The laws on foreign players covering the right to evolve in the Algerian league are clear: only those aged under 27 and international selections in their countries are allowed to sign in our clubs," said Mahfoud Kerbadj quoted by the agency APS. "We do not intend to breach this register," he insisted.


Anelka, 35 years old, was led last week with NAHD who requested a derogation to hire him for 18 months, according to club chairman Mahfoud Algiers Ouled Zmirli. Anelka has evolved in several major European clubs: Arsenal, Chelsea, Juventus or Real Madrid. In 2013, former French international with 69 selections was suspended for five games by the English Football Association and licensed by West Bromwich Albion for a "scoop", a move seen by some as anti-Semitic, which had been the author to celebrate a goal in Premier League. End of 2014, Anelka joined the Indian Super League club FC Mumbai City. 

ASIA



All these can help us to try to solve the problems of soccer and stars? None of us ignore that stars are coming to Asian just when they cannot be able to play again in Europe or when the salary and contract who have been offered to them seems to be small. Meaning they are coming just for money. How many stars or former soccer stars are staying in Asia to promote soccer? Algeria doesn’t really have money Mumbai gave to Anelka (not only Anelka is in this situation) but he was not going there for free.

without a second thought.
How to explain that football in Africa is mobilizing sponsors (even if there are not so reach as in Asia) and viewers than Asia? How to understand that Asia with all these infrastructures, cannot manage to pass Africa. When you see talented players in Europe, you will always count African players. We are not saying that Africa should not be at this level, we analyze just a situation, in the future sort of things will be able to kill expectations of football fans in countries like India, Pakistan, China, Maldives, etc ... The example of United Arab Emirate, Saudi Arabia should be the first thing to consider. The arrival of stars at the end of career in a country like India has no really impact in Indian soccer. Soccer will not be more popular than cricket because of old stars. We understand that the influence of players' agents has increased dramatically and reduced to almost zero the influence of organization like ours in the recruitment process and even trials for players and coaches who have, in many cases more talent and competences. If we leave things going like that soccer will be only a business.

An organization like ours regarding the coaches is much more equip than you may think because most of those who ask our help are experience coaches from Africa, America from, of Europe and Asia . However, our expertise has given us very often right. A player who is not very experienced,  title less, give everything to get there. Because he knows he has talent and he wants to get a name. The solution for football in Asia may be to take risks wisely. You cannot come to me when you have something to give me, to help me, but you come to me just when you need my money. People mostly thing that a star brings fans, right but for how long? What usually happens is this: fans even start to criticize and compare stars and others and realize sooner that what the star has “brought” is already in the team. Therefore they are coming in the field to see him in live because they are watching them just through television. Our advice for all Asians clubs is to think twice. How come that Palestine (some years ago Iraq created a big surprise in ACN) is playing Asian cup of nations? Why not India, Pakistan... Take risk to consult any association/organization like ours don’t just things that only a soccer agent has expertize to bring you players or coaches, in another way, you better judge them in trial without second thougth
