You don't know any footballers, do you. This is categorically not true. There might be a handful that can't be bothered, but you will find it's agents and clubs and the like that get in the ears of players, especially players from "minor" nations, and those playing in Europe that are from Africa - who's international tournaments clash with the European league calendars.
