Why dont we see asains playing in the football league clubs?

Answer 1

There's not all that many ASAINS about actually.

Answer 2

I don't think it's the parents - every cultural group has tons of parents that would prefer the child get a "real career" instead of focus on professional sports.

I don't think size/body mass etc. alone can explain it because clealy there are good players of all sizes in the EPL - just look at Park on Man U....amazing talent.

I think it is a matter of lack of recruiting. If I have a limited budget to recruit players, why am I going to fly all the way to Japan and China when I KNOW I can find players just as good in Europe?

Recruiters must then depend mostly on these players coming to them and of course fewer Asians are going to be able to make such a trip with no certain contract in the wings. It's not like J-League isn't competitive and Australia sure is closer.

Answer 3

Firstly, how can Naresh N tell someone to go to Grammar school when he writes the word 'That' as Dat.
Dat is a form of audio recording machine. Please go to college Mr. Hypocrite.

Asians from China, Koreas, Japan have careers in English football. Park Ji Sung at Man Utd may well be included in the Champions League tonight. Seoule (ex Wolves) has had a blinder at Reading this season.
Indians and Pakistanis don't really figure, but the odd one or two have been about before.

Answer 4

Frankly the strategies-set would be that once you're stable sufficient to play VFL they might have got here across you. Scouts pour throughout eire searching for means VFL and AFL point gamers. you do no longer in basic terms walk as much as those golf equipment and ask to play and the extensive-unfold is a mile above the Gaelic soccer leagues. extremely some skills choose gaining understanding of. bypass and play with your interior reach league and then think of roughly different stuff. once you're stable sufficient they're going to locate you or in case you have a champion year you are able to then bypass and state your case.

Answer 5

There were a few.

Harpal Singh (India) played for Leeds, then Bury.

Seol Ki Hyeon played for Wolves before he was snapped up by Reading.

I suppose the lower league clubs don't really want to gamble on them. The Asian players are either too good that they can't afford them, or are too lousy.

Answer 6

There are a couple you've just got to look hard for them. Micah Hyde being the most famous of them all. There are youth camps to bring more Asians into football. West Ham and Leicester having the biggest current Youth camps.

Answer 7

If you mean asians are you including people of chinese, japanese and korean heritage - forgive me for not knowing names but Man U, Bolton and Man C have players of that heritage, Pompey used to have a goalkeeper of japanese heritage Yoshi - the press loved him and were always hiding in the bushes when pompey trained on the collingwood ground, being japanese they were always polite and obviously had the best cameras of all the press at the ground

Answer 8

Because their culture doesn't make them very apt at this form of recreation, with notable exceptions, see how good they are at cricket ( which needs far more dexterity and acuteness of technique, and concentration) while nearly every other sport is medium, the odd great tennis, golf, athletics, it has nothing to do with ability, but everything to do with culture.

Answer 9

Generally spekaing Asians don't have the body strength to compete. Same in rugby as well.
