  You are comparing Frank Acheampong to Tevez, Oscar, hulk and the rest. I hope u remember where they reached in their respective careers before moving to non televised China league. Ghana can't win even a milk tin because, money is destroying careers. How can a nation invest in you for years and you end up in China?

  Buddy, that's not the point! The point is that whether you are Messi or Acheampong soccer now is BUSINESS first and sports second. It is the players' profession and their best means of securing a solid financial future for themselves and their families at large. Look around and see how many former player are experiencing finacial difficulty because they naively spent their careers chasing a legacy instead of securing their future Acheampong made the right choice, and I hope all our players learn from his situation. It's actually the same credo in other sports; Ever wonder why Mayweather is fighting Conor McGregor and not Keith Thurman or Danny Garcia who are infinitely better boxers than McGregor would ever be?

  You have a very important point, but ask yourself the players you compare frank with, what are their respective standings in their national leagues. A famous player once said after your career is over what you achieved as a player becomes important compared to the monies achieved. Today ex players make a lot of money from punditry work like marcel desailly. Do you think he would had that chance by playing in China or Dubai or Adebayor is making with Afcon at itv in England. Make your name in Europe first and find money later on your career because the name will still make you money after you have retired.

  "Make a name in Europe first and find money later". Such a catchy statement but let me ask, is it everyone who gets the luck to make it that far? Don't we know of very talented and promising footballers like David Busst whose careers were cut short by injuries? Massa, opportunities come but probably, it may come only once. Sincerely, if Acheampong was your brother, would you rather he plays for REAL MADRID instead of signing this contract?

  Very well argued and thumbs up to the writer.I guess these players deserve to make as much money as they can in their short carreer.
