March 20, 2014
Dutch football maestro Johan Cruyff and All Blacks rugby legend Dan Carter are among the latest sporting greats to confirm attendance at the 2014 Laureus World Sports Awards in Kuala Lumpur next week.
German actor Daniel Brühl, who could easily be mistaken as a sportsman following his brilliant portrayal of Niki Lauda in the film Rush, is the latest entertainment star to confirm attendance, along with Chinese supermodel and actress Du Juan.
Also present will be two of Malaysia’s greatest sports stars, seven-times world squash champion Nicol David and badminton world No 1 Lee Chong Wei.
