Gay Sports Men (70 person items)"He was about to become a professional football player, but in 1991, he decided to quit due to the pressure of having to hide his homosexuality from the football world. Urban came out to family and friends in 1994, but it was not until 13 years later, in 2007, that he publicly came out in an interview with the newspaper Welt am Sonntag in which he spoke about the difficulties of gay football players."
