Speaking to the media after the donation, the 22-year old player said he was motivated to set up a foundation to help the less privileged in society because they need support and motivation to survive.
“My motivation for this Foundation is my life, my story about football and whatever I have gone through. I just have a feeling that there are a lot people out there, not only kids but people like me also playing football who lack education and these situations have led to their downfall. That is the main reason why I want to help with education.”
The Germany based player also said his foundation has prime focus on education and sports for kids with less fortunate backgrounds.
