Andrea Cassar | The UNprofessional Footballer Podcast #16

⚽ Hosted by Danny de Abela-Borg and joined by Maltese shot-stopper Andrea Cassar. Episode 16 gives an in-depth look over the career of one of the most talented Maltese Goalkeepers never given an international cap at the senior level. Andrea's early career looked set to rocket him to the moon after debuting in the Premier League in his teenage years, but the dream start would soon become a nightmare as his boyhood club wrapped him into a match-fixing scandal that would take 3-years of his career away from him. A story that can be best described as made-for-Hollywood, listen how this 20-year-old boy, faced threats of assault, was held-hostage under contract and followed through the streets of Malta in the aftermath of his whistle-blowing to FIFA about the scandal.

The UNprofessional Footballer Podcast is a dive into the unglamorous side of the beautiful game. While Pros and Ex-Pros are currently beginning to shine a light on what life is actually like for a player at the top of the professional pyramid, this podcast is specifically designed to uncover the trials, tribulations, and day-to-day life of players clawing their way up from the bottom.
