Eni Aluko speaks her truth: Barton, Racism & FIFA’s eligibility rules
About this episode
It’s fair to say former Chelsea and England forward Eni Aluko has been in the wars of late. Here, the footballer-turned-pundit has her say on a wide range of subjects including her well-publiced legal battle with Joey Barton, and the reason she believes it’s gone this far.
Eni also discusses her Nigerian roots, explains the similarities between Emma Hayes and José Mourinho, and puts forward a radical new eligibility rule for FIFA to consider.
Aluko also reflects on her struggles in Italy with Juventus and gives her verdict on Enzo Maresca and Chelsea’s ‘business-first’ owners.
All this, and much more, on the latest episode of the Obi One Podcast, in conversation with Eni Aluko.
