Former Togolese footballer Emmanuel Adebayor expressed his displeasure about Anthony Yeboah and other stalwarts of the Ghanaian game not receiving enough recognition.
Adebayor passionately discussed his childhood affection for Anthony Yeboah with fellow footballer Asamoah Gyan.
He feels that the former Leeds United striker has not received enough praise in his native nation.
He mentioned that he spent a lot of time looking for an Anthony Yeboah shirt to buy but was unsuccessful.
Adebayor expressed his fears that in some years to come the names of some Ghanaian football legends would be forgotten .
“I grew up knowing the name of Anthony Yeboah and up to today I’m searching for a place where I can get his shirt to buy but I don’t see anything in Ghana” Adebayor said.
“That is sad which means our youngsters in three years or 30 years will not even know who is Asamoah Gyan,” the former Arsenal player said.
Adebayor’s sentiments come following calls to immortalize Ghanaian football legends with a football museum.
