The President Fabrizio Corsi and the whole family of Empoli have expressed their closeness and their condolences to Ghana international Afriyie Acquah for the death of their father Alfred Baah Yeboah.

”Our father has been well for sometime now and was receiving treatment here in Sunyani. Things were not improving so he had planned to transfer him to the Komfo Anokye Teaching Hospital today (Monday) only for me to get informed at around 12 midnight that our father is no more,” Acquah brother Leslie told GHANASoccernet.com
This came as a huge blow for the 27-year-old midfielder, who scored his first goal for Empoli on Sunday in the 3-0 win over Sassuolo and also put up an incredible performance for the side.
