Nuri Şahin is breaking down the footballer stereotype

Yeah, you know the cliches by now. Footballers are stupid. They are only interested in (wasting their) money, clothes and … zzz … yada, yada, yada.

Nonsense, of course (when was the last time you were able to make perfect split-second decisions under the pressure of 60,000 people watching you?) but, unfortunately, stereotypes can be a hard thing to break down.

Luckily, Nuri Şahin is here to the rescue.

You might know him from his time at Borussia Dortmund, Real Madrid and Liverpool. From now on you will also know him as part of Harvard Business School.

But before the Dortmund fans among you start crying because that means Şahin will be moving elsewhere, fear not.

He will be combining his Harvard work with his football one. Well done, Nuri.
