Felix Afena Gyan - Roma Player

[Rasendori]

The deal to Roma was brokered by renowned Ghanaian football agent, Oliver Arthur. He then scored 6 goals in 5 games for the Roma primavera team. He seems to have a lot of belief in Jose, and with Shomurov having a stinker there's going to be increasing pressure to give him opportunities.

Second goal is a proper peach. Although keeper is all over the gaff actually

Nice touch by Mourinho there. He really loves African player’s especially the Ghanaians.

He was even in Ghana with Essien some time back, right in my neighborhood.

Apparently there’s a voice in the background saying in Italian that “there are bananas inside”

Yes

 

[BlueHaze]

Yes

What the feck.

 

[Irrational.]

Credit to Jose, he does tend to develop some special bonds with players who are not called Luke Shaw or Paul Pogba.

 

[giorno]

What the feck.

They're joking mate

Made me check though

My first thought watching the video with the shoes is that he's well on his way to being another Pogba wanting expensive shoes at 18 years old. I think Mourinho will be dressing him down soon

Gyan came out and said it wasn't meant in a racist tone but to do with his eating habits

Still looks terrible though

The comment was definitely made. Everyone involved trying to play it down now. As you’d expect.

Mourinho bought him the shoes?

Whoever made that comment is a moron.

This does not sound plausible.

Thank you for bringing attention to this by the way

He's having to accept casual racism as he knows he needs to shut up to further his career. Very sad.

He supposedly said in defence of it 'I eat bananas a lot... that's become a thing we laugh about'

I do believe there was some racial element to it but I don't know ultimately. If the player is actively coming out against it then it's hard to say and prove otherwise, if he had remained silent then it may be different

Not really. If Felix is to be believed, it was a joke between friends. Roma are morons for publishing a video with that comment though

 

[pcaming]

Balenciaga shoes are the elite status symbol in sneakers atm

Do you believe him?

 

[DWelbz19]

Classic “joke”, that. 60 odd years ago, maybe…

 

[11101]

Do you believe him?

Why wouldn't you?

Kid scores 2 goals a month after his debut but all anybody wants to do is drag him into a racism scandal

 

[giorno]

Do you believe him?

Eh, i don't know honestly. I want to, the alternative is too bleak

 

[NasirTimothy]

Yes, that pesky racism. It’s so annoying. Why can’t we just not ever talk about it?

 

[NasirTimothy]

Eh, i don't know honestly. I want to, the alternative is too bleak

Same here

 

[Vidyoyo]

So anyway he looks like a cracking player. I wonder how far he'll go?

Second one was an absolute bulldozer of a shot

Don't do this bro. He actually looks 18 to be fair

Already on a yellow and already 2-0 up, in injury time, handles the ball to score...

Kid thinks he is already Thierry Henry

 

[RC89]

What's up with those shoes?

Kids love them, no idea why. Well actually, it's all to do with the fact that they're Balenciaga.

 

[RC89]

What??

Take a look at Obafemi Martin's at '18', that should explain it.
