Exiled in Texas Posted July 24, 2023 Share Posted July 24, 2023 Glad he is OK. Was watching him talk in the intro to the Milan-Madrid game when he hit the floor. co presenter calls for medic and a cut to commercial. About 30 mins into game a very confused world feed announcer (didn’t know what happened) had message for American audience that Shaka was ok Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Rafalove Posted December 4, 2025 Share Posted December 4, 2025 (edited) This is really sad, done a lot for the club, particularly for his off field stuff.

CaliMag Posted December 4, 2025 Share Posted December 4, 2025 Shaka was instrumental in the FBI’s investigation into FIFA corruption and reforming how CONCAFAC is managed. Has consistently spoken up for the rights of players and the grassroots game as the head of the CONCAFAC players association. He has a lot of integrity and has used his influence consistently for the forces of good. Can’t say enough good things about him. Oh and his pro-Newcastle bias as a commentator for North American broadcasts is a breath of fresh air. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
