Manchester City winger, Jeremy Doku
Manchester City winger, Jeremy Doku, has expressed his heartfelt desire to reconnect with his Ghanaian heritage by visiting the country of his parents very soon.
Born to Ghanaian parents, David Doku and Belinda Doku, Jeremy Doku chose to play for Belgium over Ghana.
Despite representing Belgium, Doku still has a strong connection to his roots in Ghana.
In a recent interview with SuperSport, the player revealed that he is fluent in Twi and loves Ghanaian music, food, and dance.
"I am also a Ghanaian because my parents are Ghanaians, and I speak Twi. I have been there once, so I have to go there again," the winger said.
"I like the way they dance, they talk, and the music. My parents go back often, and I haven’t gone back yet, so I have to go," he stated.
Although his professional lifestyle requires him to prioritize his diet, Doku professed that he cherishes the Ghanaian meals prepared by his mother.
"Now I have a chef; it's not healthy for a footballer to eat a lot, but when I go home, my mom prepares it for me," the former Stade Rennes player said.
Since joining Man City, Doku has featured in 25 matches, scoring 3 goals with 7 assists.
