Pires, Ronaldinho & Scholes Heading To Kuwait
KUWAIT: The Higher Organizing Committee
of the Jaber International Stadium activities has revealed the names of
the first six star legends who will play with Kuwait soccer stars Dec
18th. The committee said in a press statement that Brazilian Ronaldinho
De Assis Moreira, Spanish Carles Puyol, UK’s Paul Scholes, Italy’s
Andrea Pirlo, Gianluca Zambrotta and France’s Robert Pires will be
present at the event.
Meanwhile, Ronaldinho, Puyol and Pires have confirmed that they will be
participate in the Jaber Stadium activities on social media. The
committee said it is keen on getting the most known and popular soccer
stars around the world – especially those who won championships – be it
World Cup or the European Champions League. The rest of the names will
be announced in the coming days. There will be 15 world stars available.
They will be managed by Italy’s Carlo Ancelotti – and expert referee
Pierluigi Collina will also be present.
The organizing committee said the world stars will give the event a
special flavor and make fans happy, as they wait for the great challenge
between Kuwait stars and the world legends. The committee is racing
with time to complete the preparations, particularly in regards to
agreements with world stars, as contacts with them began two weeks ago
which is relatively a short time.
COMMENT - reportedly Qadsia fans are unhappy their goalkeeping hero is not running away with the votes! More information about this game can be found at Jaber Stadium. A full round of Kuwait Premier League fixtures have been released for the weekend of this game so I guess they will be canceled?
Given FIFA's suspension of Kuwait, where does that leave the foreign players? I guess as they are all at that age where they don't care anymore nothing will be done.
