By saving Nima Polyclinic, a former Barcelona player

Memphis Depay, a football star for the Netherlands, recently visited Ghana to see the improvements made to the Nima Polyclinic. The health center reached out to Depay for assistance with several upgrades, including repairing a fortified gate, building a security post, and drilling a borehole. In response, Depay graciously offered to pay for the necessary work to upgrade the clinic's facilities. After returning to Ghana for a vacation, Depay dropped by the clinic to check on matters. In a social media video, Depay expressed his happiness at the improvements while interacting with the clinic's staff and on-duty police. Because of his Ghanaian ancestry, he has a strong bond with Ghana, and his visit showed how committed he is to philanthropy there.

In addition to supporting the Nima Polyclinic, Depay has been involved in several humanitarian initiatives in Ghana. One of his notable initiatives is his annual donation to the Cape Coast School for the Deaf, which he has sponsored for a period of years. Depay's humanitarian activities reveal his ties to Ghana, given his father's Ghanaian ancestry.

Depay's affection for Ghanaian culture is another indication of his ties to the nation. He recently performed the well-known Adowa, a traditional Ghanaian dance, following a goal for the Netherlands. Depay, who shares his teammate Frimpong's Ghanaian heritage, discussed the significance of the dance and his pride in his heritage. He emphasized that despite their international representation of the Netherlands, they still view their African ancestry as an important part of who they are. Depay, who transferred to Corinthians from Atletico Madrid in the summer, is anticipated to play football in Brazil going forward. He took some time, however, to give back to the country that holds such a special place in his heart before leaving for Europe to prepare for the 2024 Euros in Germany.
