Best Answer

Athletes choose to move to Another Country to play a sport for many different reasons. Some of the main reasons are usually salary, playing time, competitiveness, or sometimes just wanting to see different parts of the world. If an athlete wants to move countries and continue to play their sport, they usually do so in order to benefit themselves with a higher salary or more playing time.
