"Because of football, I didn't have the opportunity to go to university because I started so early. But it makes you remember a lot of things, you know. Nothing replaces your school days. I was in a French school here in East Legon for so long before I went to France.

"And that was, you know, a great moment. You remember what happened in class, being a bit stubborn sometimes. But yeah, coming back here, I just felt that I feel happy.

"And that's, for me, what's important. I don't want to always say everything in a short time, but bit by bit, if we have time to go into these things, you know, we are more than open to open up a lot of experiences that we've had to be able to help the ones coming."
