‘S.G.’, a talented footballer in his home country, was approached by a man claiming to be a football
agent. Promising a trial with a club in Africa that would lead to Europe, the agent convinced him to
pay and travel. Instead, he found himself trapped in a trafficking network.
That’s when the young man’s dream of becoming a professional football player in Europe turned into
a nightmare. Today, after years of hardship, he has transformed his experience into a mission to
combat human trafficking, holding an Anti-Human Trafficking Diploma from Dubai Police.
