Over the last few months, the media has been dominated by images and news of the world-wide refugee crisis. While the issues continue to be debated by politicians, we hear two remarkable stories of refugees-turned-footballers who fled the atrocities of war and succeeded at the highest level of the game.

We speak to Afghanistan captain Zohib Islam Amiri, who shares his story of half-time executions and signing for Zico, and Sierra Leone striker and former Norwich player Kei Kamara, who says: "As a kid seeing executions in front of you or seeing dead bodies every day... you know, waking up and seeing vultures eating through them, it鈥檚 never what you wished on anyone."
