Shanghai SIPG striker, Asamoah Gyan
Shanghai SIPG striker, Asamoah Gyan has defended the lifestyle of African players from criticism that they do not give enough back to their communities.
“For us African players, a return to the community is a very important thing. We know where we come from and we never forget our hometown.
"Many African players are born into poor families so when we achieve something we always feel the need to go back to our communities to help those who are poor.”
"I have a foundation and so do others like Adebayor. When we are on vacation we do these things.
Gyan who is also Ghana captain recently signed a lucrative deal with the Chinese Super League side and has scored two goals in three appearances for the league leaders.
