Having played at different youth levels for Germany, Jeseja looks to make it big in the sport of football.
“I know I dream big about what I want. You have to work for it really hard but I want to win the Ballon D‘Or and the World Cup with the National Team these are my biggest dreams,” Charles-Jesaja Herrmann said in an interview with Ghanasportsonline.com.
“I have the same specialty as my father. Football is in the genes so it’s something I love doing. I started playing football with my aunt at the age of 3 and that’s how it all started.”
The 18-year-old also has Ronaldo Lima and Thierry Henry as players he’d like to be like.
