A Tunisian football club said Tuesday it had suspended activities after 32 of its players illegally emigrated to Europe. "We've halted activities and suspended our matches," the fourth-division Ghardimaou club's president Jamil Meftahi told AFP on Tuesday, blaming "clandestine emigration". Over the past three years, 32 of the club's players have emigrated to Europe, he said. Tunisia is in the grip of a long, worsening economic crisis that has pushed many of its citizens to take desperate measures in search of better lives abroad.
