Should black footballers play for England?

Reya El-Salahi

Available for over a year

With the recent excitement of the Football World Cup, a Nottingham-born former Jamaican international footballer is calling for black players to do more to support African and Caribbean teams. Michael Johnson says the lack of African and Caribbean teams in latter stages of the tournament is due to black footballers choosing to play for Western teams instead of their country of origin. In this clip, the BBC's Reya El-Salahi speaks to the ex-footballer.
