“This has always been a dream of mine, but I had to wait until I was in a position to give back,” he shared.
“While I play football for my family, being able to support others is equally important to me. Giving back to Africa, my roots, is something I hold dear. I have Ghanaian blood, and bringing joy to these kids means everything,” he added.
Frimpong’s visit coincided with the Bundesliga’s winter break.
