Football

George Floyd鈥檚 death drew attention to problems with diversity in football. Grime artist Saskilla meets people from across the game to find out what is being done to fix them.

In the wake of George Floyd鈥檚 death and the growth of the Black Lives Matter movement, footballers across the nation took the knee and the governing body of English football, the Football Association, made a pledge on diversity and inclusion. Despite these actions, little appears to have changed in the world of football so far, with representation in the women鈥檚 game appearing to be falling back over the years. Grime artist Saskilla speaks to Premier League footballers, coaches and managers across the UK for answers, and asks, is there a lost generation of black talent in the sport?
