New Modric has much more to do before he can fit in


No Major League Soccer: Wan Kuzri is facing a language barrier.

PETALING JAYA: When Wan Kuzri Wan Ahmad Kamal’s name was announced as part of the training camp for the 2020 AFC Under-19 Championships team in Tashkent, Uzbekistan, many believed he was the next best hope of Malaysian football.

The Malaysian-American, who plays for St Louis Football Club Academy in the United States, has been hyped on social media as being the “Malaysian Luka Modric” and even national Under-19 sensation Luqman Hakim Shamsuddin likened him to German star Toni Kroos.
