Popular Ghanaian comic actor and founder of the Dabo Soccer Academy, Samuel Yaw Dabo, has unveiled his plans to send his team on a tour in Europe.
In May 2023, the actor embarked on his own European tour to establish connections between his academy and clubs on the continent.
During his tour, he visited Germany, France, and the Netherlands, where he met with Ajax star Mohammed Kudus.
Subsequently, he headed to Spain and had the opportunity to witness Real Madrid’s UEFA Champions League semi-final first-leg game against Manchester City at the Santiago Bernabeu in May 2023.
While on his European journey, Dabo emphasized his desire to give back to society, frequently visiting orphanages and villages to recruit young players for his soccer academy.
His commitment to nurturing talent and contributing positively to the community remains a prominent aspect of his endeavors.
“I have the Dabo Soccer Academy, because we have to support others. That’s my dream because, when you get money, you have to give it to somebody because everybody needs help,” he told Marca.
Speaking to Plus One TV, Dabo said “We are putting up plans to go on a tour in Europe soon. We will make sure no player runs away from the team. One of the countries we will visit is Spain due to my link with Marca. We will engage in competitive friendlies and tournaments”, he said.
Dabo has also disclosed that plans have begun for the construction of a training pitch and a multi-purpose sports complex at Nyinahin a town in the Ashanti Region of Ghana.
