'By ignoring it, you’re legitimising what they want. They’re not doing this out of thegoodness of their heart, they’re doing it for a reason' The cost of City’s success should never be ignored, say those who have witnessed the UAE’s horrors up close
Manchester City fans have been urged to keep human rights abuses in the United Arab Emirates at the forefront of their minds as the club bid to win the Champions League final this Saturday.
Nicholas McGeehan, one of the co-founders of human rights group Fair Square, believes victory in Istanbul is the “best case scenario” for Sheikh Mansour bin Zayed Al Nahyan, senior member of Abu Dhabi’s ruling family and deputy prime minister of the UAE, whose Abu Dhabi United Group took over City in 2008.
“I see all the kids walking around with Manchester City tops – I think it’s telling they’ve achieved that level of profile.”
