The Defector's Story

World Football

Available for over a year

Following the defection of four Cuban internationals, we hear from Maykel Galindo who defected to the United States seven years ago. We’re also in Havana to hear the reaction of fans. The former Barcelona and AC Milan striker Patrick Kluivert tells us he wants to coach a top European club. We’re with Ecuadorian expats in New Jersey as the country’s clasico comes to town with Emelec and Barcelona. And Paolo Di Canio disagrees with Sergio Aguero’s view that British players are treated better than their foreign counterparts by English referees.
