He played for Leeds, not mentioned in the article.
- He did not: http://www.soccerbase.com/players_details.sd?playerid=8361 --Dryazan 15:15, 20 Mar 2005 (UTC)
Yes he did, he was on loan to Leeds in the mid nineties. I was a season ticket holder at Elland Road.
- I can find no evidence of this. Weah spent the late 90s (1995-99) with Milan, and he transferred there from PSG (1992-95). If you have any evidence of him playing for Leeds, post a link here. Maybe you are mixing him up with Tony Yeboah? --Dryazan 19:09, 20 Mar 2005 (UTC)
I think you're right

[edit] "Politics" section
Anyone else find this sentence unintentionally comical:
"Weah has also promised to bring low cost housing to the countryside, where people often live in houses."
[edit] Football
Hey, I do not know how to do it, so I can't, but could somebody put a picture of him playing for Milan, like this http://www.as.com/misc/fifaworld04/fotografia/weah.jpg I think he deserves it you know as one of the world's best players ever. I was shocked to see him in a formal suit in the wikipedia article. I know he's almost the president right now, but he was a football icon, come on!
[edit] Conversion
Is there any sources to state that he actually converted to Christianity from Islam, I mean both his parents had Christian names and he was given his at birth, it doesn't make much sense.
I've checked up on this, apparantely he was born Christian, converted to Islam, and then converted back when his grandmother died.
[edit] Ali Dia
His connection to Ali Dia has been ignored but maybe it should be mentioned?
[edit] Dubious Information
Caps and goal figures in the article likely contain European cup/Domestic cup data in addition to Domestic League data (this is very certain based on this user's previous edits containing similar information [1]. Please correct this issue and leave a note here, http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/User_talk:Alfmaster#Footballers.27_European_goals, to warn this person about putting improper information on Wikipedia. --Palffy 21:17, 25 June 2006 (UTC)
[edit] Valiente Fukushima
Apparently he has signed on to play with this Japanese team, on the 8th rung of the soccer pyramid. —Preceding unsigned comment added by 220.5.254.102 (talk) 10:27, 21 January 2008 (UTC)
