The list of the smartest soccer players is coming to the part where the guys bring the big guns to the table and show the people that soccer can be associated with smart people.
Shaka Hislop takes smartness to another level and began his career by earning a scholarship to play soccer at Howard University in the U.S.
The first step was getting the team through the finals in his freshman years and after that he concentrated to pass with honours and obtain the degree he applied for in mechanical engineering.
His next step made us say “Wow”, he joined NASA as an intern for a while, making him earn this place on the list of smartest soccer players.
Another accomplishment of his brought him merits and strengthen the smart guy allure, creating an organization who deals with racism in soccer. Named “Show racism the red card”.
After he retired and even coached a little bit, he is working for ESPN, the famous sport channel, where he comments some important matches from first class championships like the Netherlands Eredivisie, Italian Serie A and Mexican Liga MX.
The former keeper made it clear that before and after football you can adopt knowledge like a sport, because it keeps your brain trained and ready to give you the chance to become the intelligent man you want to be.
