Kadeem Harris completes move

Kadeem Harris completes Ukraine switch

Kadeem Harris could be the first Englishman to play in Ukrainian football after completing a shock move to Metalist Kharkiv.

The former Cardiff City winger left Sheffield Wednesday after his contract ended in the summer and has decided to move to eastern Europe in a surprise switch.

And, after his unveiling, he has spoken about the prospect of being an Englishman about to ply his trade in Ukraine.

"Yesterday we talked about it and I learned that I could become the first Englishman in the history of Ukrainian football," he told the club's website.

"This imposes a double responsibility on me, so I look forward to my debut even more, to take a step forward with the club and write history.

"I have a great family - a wife, two small children. My wife and I want to look around the city. We have already been to Gorky Park, I made a video there for my wife, this place made an excellent impression on my family.

"Now I feel very comfortable here and I hope that it will be the same for my family. It is necessary to find a school for children, perhaps they will not immediately live in Kharkov on a permanent basis.

"But, as soon as I get comfortable here, both my wife and children will immediately come here."

Good luck to him hope it all works out well

good luck indeed, especially being of colour!! Widespread racism still out there!( in football terms)

Scored on his debut

So far so good then, but a poor performance or two, and you watch the racist tone change towards him! I mean fair play to the boy for even having the balls, to take it on there!!
