Episode 31 of Sport Unlocked, the podcast dissecting the
week's sports news issues with interviews and insight from Rob
Harris, Martyn Ziegler and Tariq Panja.


On the agenda on August 27, 2021:


FIFA is defied by clubs over leagues in Europe over the
mandatory release of players for World Cup qualifiers

It comes as Gianni Infanatino says FIFA is now a trusted
governing body as they receive cash forfeited in the corruption
cases. Is the FIFA president right? There's particular concerns
about the PR-led campaign for World Cups every two years.

There's a Qatar focus on Paris Saint-Germain's latest
transfer dealings and fresh questions about migrant worker deaths
in the Gulf nation - as England manager Gareth Southgate
discusses the issue.

Plus the Paralympics are underway in Tokyo with coronavirus
concerns just like the Olympics.
