Ryan Tafazolli has been inundated with messages from players who want to follow in his footsteps and swap the grind of English football for career-extending spells in Hong Kong.
After completing a shock loan switch from League One Wycombe Wanderers to Lee Man in January, Tafazolli has been sharing his exploits on his popular YouTube channel.
And the centre back, who has been ever present for the Hong Kong Premier League club since he joined, said he would be keen to stay next season.
“I’ve had messages from Championship and League One players asking if I know contacts or agents who could help get them to Hong Kong,” Tafazolli said. “You’d be surprised by the level of players [interested in coming].
“They’ve seen the YouTube videos and think it looks really appealing.
“Back home, it’s hard, you play 60 games a season and it takes a toll on your body. Hong Kong is good for players who still have a lot to offer and want to prolong their careers.”
