FOX Sports Radio 96.9 FM/1340 AM hit show “Listen In With KNN” hosted by Award-winning presenter, Kelsey N. Nelson, Ray Jones and two-time NFL Super Bowl Champion and former New England Patriots Cornerback, Tyrone Poole, welcomed FOX Sports Radio 96.9 FM/1340 AM’s soccer journalist, Montreal Impact sideline reporter, international philanthropist and media presenter, Wala Amara, on to the show to discuss the very latest news and relevant trending topics in the world of soccer and the NBA.
The “Listen In With KNN” team and the 23-year-old Tunisian kicked off the show paying tribute and sincere condolences to, Emiliano Sala, who was officially confirmed dead at the age of 28 last week after sadly disappearing without a trace for two weeks.
The Argentinean, who joined English Premier League club Cardiff City from Ligue 1 side Nantes for a club record £15 million on January 19, 2019, disappeared two days later after joining the Bluebirds on January 21 after the 2019 Piper PA-46 Malibu plane, which Sala was traveling to Cardiff from Nantes, unceremoniously and shockingly plummeted into the deep depths of the seabed of the English Channel.Â
In addition, the great transatlantic debate surrounding the NFL’s Oakland Raiders sharing stadium with Tottenham Hotspur’s brand new White Hart Lane stadium next season was touched upon, coupled alongside the team delving into Ole Gunnar Solskjaer’s positive form as interim Head Coach at Manchester United since the dismissal of José Mourinho. Elsewhere, the intense and suspenseful three-horse title race in the English Premier League between Pep Guardiola’s Manchester City, Jürgen Klopp’s Liverpool and Mauricio Pochettino’s Tottenham Hotspur was analyzed, as well as Amara’s thought’s and views on the Montreal Impact’s forthcoming 2019 MLS season.
Moreover, this Sunday’s 2019 NBA All-Star was previewed with poignancy as the star of star’s from the biggest basketball league in the world await the glittering stage of fast-break, slam-dunk action in the NBA’s preeminent showcase and a glutton of A-list stardom and highlight reel spectacle.Â
