Malaysian footballer Mokhtar Dahari received an offer to play for Real Madrid but he refused to accept the offer. Instead, he continued to play for Malaysian club Selangor F. C. as he prioritised patriotism and love for his home club of Selangor.

He passed away soon after, battling ALS.
would’ve be the first Malaysian to play in Europe?
I thought only Totti refused Réal Madrid for this reason. That’s why they’ll forever be loved by their clubs.
excellent world cup post. super relevant
The way his wiki page is written I doubt this is true
Good on him.
I would never accept an offer for Real Madrid, PSG, Man City, Barcelona. Too many plastic fans
