the diversity of this channel in terms of the types of content it covers is beyond amazing...
Jeffrey Choi True
Could not have said it better mate
Absolutely the most true thing I’ve heard today
No 3 hour intro, no trying to get me to buy stuff and no shit music. To the point and extremely informative. Great channel. 👍
thor7789 well, i mean the book he recommended is not free :P
Unlike oh my goal
This video should go viral. People who trade money for dreams and lives for an individual don't deserve to live. Who knows how many Essien, Mikel, Drogba and Mane are lost like these everyday?
Maybe they wouldn't have been stars but they could atleast live a better life and see their parents.
Thanks Tifo as always for amazing content.
Hope FIFA and UN put an end to this more sooner than later.
Sayak Mitra As long as they get more africans into Europe they don’t care.

FIFA and the UN won't be the ones to put an end to it. Just like the Catholic Church, the bigger the organisation, the more avenues of corruption there are. Within the UN and FIFA, there exists too much graft for any meaningful change. I believe the most effective way of curbing this will come from the grassroots level.
This is the video I asked for, perfect revelation of what's happening, is really really sad people can do this things to teenagers, I hope this changes as soon as possible, Thanks Tifo.
This is heartbreaking . No one talks about it .
I love Tifo...from Ghana 🇬🇭
Im extremely proud of what you guys have become since the beginning of the channel . This is what make me love football even more, knowing people like yourselves challenge any taboos within it.
I personally know a young man that was mistakenly brought to Portugal to play football from Guinea and when the club was not interested he was left alone in Portugal with no money and no mean to return home. Fortunately for him he also had a Portuguese passport and he managed to enlist in the Portuguese army and while receiving wages he has shelter and food. And he's actually happy for being here. Somehow his story ended up alright. There are a lot of young man that don't have that luck.
this is the dark side of football. agents playing with people's life, like a commodity, for their own benefit. fifa should be more stringent. :(
They are stringent, it's simply that it's extremely hard to control what these people do in some African countries, when not even the government of that country are in control of their own inhabitants.
The responsible people are con artists, swindlers, criminals - and not connected to any official football organ at all.
Same thing happens in mexico as well. Just the reach of this is wholy unreal
FIFA doesn't do anything in terms of legal issues. They just pretend it in countries where laws are followed but in the countries that laws are not followed FIFA simply looks the other way. Mexico is an example of FIFA turning the other way in terms of players rights and multi club ownership, and it's not a secret, they just don't care.
I don't like seeing this stuff but it is so important that we all do see it. Really good video Tifo and happy you never shy away from the bad things despite the potentially better profits sticking to just the glamorous stuff. Please keep it up so we can keep watching!

Cannot bury your head in the sand your whole life.
On & Off pitch issues is why I love Tifo
This is what make Tifo different from other channels. Tifo talks about more than just football. Tifo talks about the other sides of the game that we could have never known before. Great work !
Africa is always on the receiving end of every negative thing in this world. Human trafficking, bad governance, corruption, slavery, neo-colonialism. its SAD
True
Saying it's Sad implies there isn't a solution, nothing to be done. There most certainly are solutions but I can guarantee you, wailing on the internet, isn't one of them.
There hasn't been a single place on earth that hasn't experienced virtually all of those things mentioned. Maybe you should learn indulge yourself in more world history. You never know what you might find
You forgot to mention China who is starting the 2nd rape of Africa
@VinnyC1323 hello Mr Racist, how do you do?
Every country has corruption, it's just more visible in Africa yes. South America is just as bad.
Can you please do a tribute on the story of Leicester City's owner?
They also need to apologise for a badly-thought they sent out.
@@Ese96Agoaye ? I don't think they criticised vichai
@@Ese96Agoaye They actually gave away some very interesting facts about him. He was a bussiness man not a saint.
Amazing video. Excellent work highlighting the problem and great research work!
Good stuff!
This is a good video, I didn’t know this was a problem. It’s good that you made people aware of this.
Superb stuff Tifo! Hope this increases the awareness regarding the plight of the ones fallen by the wayside!
Excellent video as always, Tifo!
Another video looking at one of the many overlooked issues in football. Keep up the good work Tifo!
Thank you for this video Tifo. That’s why in my country Cameroon youths with great potential are scared of having a trial in any foreign country because of the actions carried out by some of these people who call themselves agents. It’s sad
what an eye opening video just bought the book try and educate myself on this horrific topic as much as possible what a terrible state of affairs these kids are put into heartbreaking truly
Tifo just being Tifo with these brilliant and educational videos, focusing on more important things... Things happening in the shadows of the most powerful clubs, players and owners... Things happening in football's own backyard, in our backyard. Thank you Tifo. ❤️⚽🌍
Great video. The Away Game by Sebastian Abbott was my introduction to this concept. Thank you for all you produce.
Tifo Football, your videos never fail me!! As having the game a part of my life since I was 17..football is truly a way of life...your videos not only are astonishing but very well detailed to understand the nature of the game, styles and philosophy’s, footballers, money corruptions, politics being part of football, the beauty and the dark side of the game...your videos are truly granting me a very strong understanding towards the world of football...and that the more I see these videos of yours..it really makes me explore more deeply in the nature of football..and that these football videos of yours really bring out the philosopher out of me towards the world of football understanding what is good and bad...I just subscribe to you and that I really encourage you to make more of these videos...the one where you talk about slavery in European football really made me realize that there is still European colonization in a way...I’m highly in love with your guys’d work
What a channel. The scope of your investigations and deep dives is fantastic. Keep it up, lads.
Salute to your you , your UA-cam channel is a phenomenon.
I just want to know your research process and how come you manage to select such reverse and wide variety of topics related to football. You've opened my eyes . I never thought of such phenomenon actually existed
The level of the work you put in to every video, every day is astounding.. great video! 👍🏻
We need a video about Vichai's impact on Leicester city as a priority, and no one better to do that than you guys, I'm sure you'll do him justice. With that said, let me praise you not only for the quality of your content but also for the broad selection of topics around football you cover. I swear you learn about everything in the world *through* football when watching your videos. Your bibliography is on point and your coverage on hard topics such as this is impartial and second to none. Thanks for the hard work guys, one day I'll tell people I knew about your channel ever since it was a small uMaxIt channel ran by some guys about my age or younger. Excellent coverage.
I watched this 5 years ago, got a big job interview in the football industry and here I am watching it again 5 years later and will use the info in the interview. Thank you all for this
Ive been binging alot of your videos, but this one really got me. You got my damn subscription
Thank you for alerting us to some of the problems in world football.
I had never heard of this issue before, very sad for the families involved
but good to hear organisations such as Foot Solidaire are working to stop this from happening.
You have earned a new subscriber. Best football channel on any/all media. Incredible work.
Imagine Tifo doing investigative journalism with actual video footage. Great work guys.
Great work, will read the book.
I suggest you do a video about Mexico's multi club ownership and players rights, which are owned by clubs like in the 1980's and FIFA turns the other way.
This is extremely saddening. I had no idea about this and I thank you and the channel to enlightening me to the dark side of football. Would very much appreciate more of this kind of content in between the already awesome stuff you guys are making. Keep up the good work!
Tifo always puts so much time and hard work in their videos. Keep it up!
This has become my favourite channel well done
this channel is on another level...thank you
Thank you Tifo for doing this. I love the game, but this is what is important. ❤
Brilliant videos. Thank you guys
Am a Cameroonian 🇨🇲. Africa and the world knows our love for the game is beyond the world. we got scammers in the name of agents in every single town. Love your channel from Bamenda 🇨🇲 Cameroon
you are a real sport's journalist. I really admire your channel and your principals to not only talk about the pretty side of the sport and also de ugly side, with extremely well research! well done!
Hit it out of the park again Tifo
Stories like these need more exposure
And it’s so much worse in Asia. I’ve lived in Shanghai and Manila over the last couple of years and there are so many 18-23 year old African lads promised the dream by dodgy agents. The kids and their families pay the agent £5k to sort everything out, which is often the total savings of a village or community, and as the video says, the agent then leaves them when they arrive in a foreign city thousands of miles away with no savings or money to get back home. Horrible stuff and they’re often forced into theft or selling drugs to survive.
Shut your theeth
Pecu Alex exactly
Pecu Alex he sounds like he’s 5
Thanks Tifo u hv saved lives....we r those young boys in Africa tht only dream...
Tifo is a special channel. Excellent video, terrifying reality. Thank you.
Tifo is my favorite channel. I can't say much more than the rest of the subs already have. If I wanted to create a better channel with my money, friends and talent, I couldn't. Thanks for your stunning quality, diversity, and industry!
I've really enjoyed your shift towards videos like this recently, another excellent insight, keep it up.
Thank you Tifo♥️
I love your videos and contents ♥️👏🙏
Thank you for the enlightenment
thank you for this video Tifo
Yet another great video Tifo. I just want to point out that Cameroon won 2000 and 2002; 98 was Egypt.
Tifo Football's work is truly outstanding.
This is the stuff i subscribed for, thank you so much for caring about football and not hiding such acts. Please do more for football and speak against such. You can never be thanked enough.
Honestly, you guys are making the best football content on the internet hands down. This is a horrific story that I imagine very few people who watch the game know much about. Thank you for making this.
Great video. Can you do an update to Patrick Viera's tactics at Nice?
Amazing piece. Love it . im going to get that book too
Great content as usual. Just a small remark Egypt won the African Cup of Nations 1998 not Cameroon as mentioned
Such a great video, I get so confused when teens who shine in the U17 world cup sign for teams in the lower leagues of eastern European football. Greedy agents.
Thank you for the insightful video Tito Football. It's so awful to hear that this is going on in Modern Football. I hope FAs and others can come together to fight this so that one day, an African nation can lift a World Cup trophy for the glory of their continent.
this is so relevant . thanks for making this vid
How briliantlly narrated,how amazingly researched...beautiful
Great channel!
I lot of people wonder why Sadio Mane's parents were not supportive of his footballing dreams. The video right here explains why Mane's parents encouraged him to stay home and become a teacher. Of course, he got into a legitimate football academy with genuine connections to Europe. But it could have all gone so horribly wrong!
But tbf Mane moved to FC Metz, probably one of the best clubs for young talent from Senegal since they have very solid and positive links with the country and have an academy there
It's simple, I see a Tifo video... I watch. It's that simple
Wow, thank you for bringing this matter into the light!
I was aware of this thing but didn't know the details. Thanks tifo!
Great content as usual.
Love this channel. Any chance you could do a video on Vichai Srivaddhanaprabha and his impact at Leicester as a tribute ?
We produced a video on Vichai Srivaddhanaprabha a while back, in our 'Meet The Owners' playlist. Likewise we have covered the Leicester City Fairytale in our 'Finance & Law' playlist.
Holy shit! I had no idea this was happening. Great video
The only channel who talks about the problems and history
Unlike other talking about players private life and challenges or other
Another great informative video, will definitely order that book now.
Great video.
Love tifo
This is disgustingly shocking!! And nothing is being done to put a stop to this crime of humanity!!! Thank you for sharing this with us.
I advise everyone here to get their hands on a copy of "Inside Football's Slave Trade" by Ed Hawkins, great read...confirmed a lot of what I've witnessed with my own eyes living in Africa. Shameful really, a lot of the crooks are actually Africans smh.
sadly not willing to pay for it. if it's free i might try. sad truth
pokki pok then fuck off
Sad to know. However, another great video by TIFO!
Please do the Leicester owner who passed away this weekend
I would 100% recommend reading the Hawkins book referenced at the end of this video. There is a lot more to this than immediately meets the eye.
Tifo is really becoming the peak of football journalism. Telling the untold story, the unheard story.
I love this channel, you conduct excellent research. However, Cameroon did not win the African nations cup in 1998, Egypt did.Please Tifo, we would love to see more work on African football. Regards from Nigeria, Keep up the great work!
Tifo, because of you, i still got faith in the humanity.
Heartbreaking :(
So much in 4:30 mins. incredible work by the tifo team
ANOTHER AMAZING PIECE.
This channel answers the hard questions that no one else seems to talk about.
As always, well done boys!
Tifo truly one of the best football channels around... Telling very important stories
The best but also the saddest video way before the video about Lily Parr :'(
Oh my gosh, playing Football Manager, I've been signing young African players for decades! I feel terrible!!! Seriously though, great video on this awareness. Human Trafficking on football players and other forms have truly been going on for far too long
Being from the lovely continent, Africa, I can definitely tell you that shocking to me. You definitely have my share, like, and retweet. Loving some of the awareness stuff you doing here. And as Hamid Conteh has put it, no one talks about it here. I never knew about this. Like, I've lived on this continent for 90%+ of my life and never knew that young adolescents are being robbed of a normal life to waste away abroad as prostitutes.
Extremely eye-opening!
I'm so glad I found this channel.... I've been binging on your videos like crazy!
This should go viral
Bone chilling... sigh oh Africa
Yep the daily struggles of third world countries.
I watched this channel way before it was popular. I had to write it.
Very true. I moved to england at 16 to play football, from Australia. The English FA introduced a law that wouldn’t allow me to get my international clearance to play football- unless I moved to england for education. I had to prove I was there for education by enrolling into a college and living with family. This was 5 years ago. I think they introduced it not long before. It was to stop exactly things like this happening. Unfortunately it still happens everywhere though!
Thanks for making this video, I don't think many people understand this. I didn't
Always waiting for tifo next video.... Please hire me .... I want to work with you
That is terribly sad.
This is absolutely shocking thank you TIFO for this well explained video
Remarkable video. Thank you for highlighting the tragic plight of these boys Tifo!
