Tobias Zuser

Tobias has been living in Hong Kong and China since 2008. After working as an arts and event manager in Beijing for more than three years, where he also became a passionate supporter of Beijing Guoan, he moved back to Hong Kong in 2012. Currently he pursues his PhD degree at Hong Kong Baptist University, Department of Humanities and Creative Writing, focusing on football culture as well as cultural/sports policies in Hong Kong and China. He regularly appears as commentator on RTHK and also co-hosts the weekly “Hong Kong Football Podcast”. Tobias is also a volunteer in the management team of Hong Kong’s refugee club All Black FC, helping them with their development and community outreach. In June 2014 he started offside.hk, as the first English platform solely dedicated to local football. His favourite Hong Kong side is Tai Po, but you can still see him at all Beijing Guoan away games in the south of China.
