Kumawood actor Yaw Dabo looks forward to partnering with Real Madrid and top football agent Jorge Mendes for his football academy.
According to the diminutive actor, he believes that a partnership with the Los Blancos will help unearth many talents in Ghana and reposition his academy for growth.
Yaw Dabo has already toured many top football clubs across Europe as he reportedly seeks to build networks that will enable his academy to have the requisite support to harness local talents for the global stage.
Before appealing to Jorge Mendes to partner with him, Yaw Dabo had toured Ajax Amsterdam, Borussia Dortmund, and Real Madrid, where he met and interacted with Mohammed Kudus and Jude Bellingham.
He was interviewed by Marca in Spain, which took over the internet.
Sending an appeal to Jorge Mendes, who is the football agent for top stars like Cristiano Ronaldo, Darwin Nunes, and Bernardo Silva, Yaw Dabo said:
“Or perhaps Jorge Mendes.” Jorge Mendes does a lot for children, so perhaps he will listen to me and come to my academy to help. “You have to begin somewhere. I’m fine if I get a chance at a lower tier.
The Dabo Soccer Academy in Kumasi is owned by Yaw Dabo, where young talents are trained for future exploits; thus, he believes a partnership with Real Madrid will be the most significant leap for his academy.
“I want assistance, and maybe with this interview, I might obtain opportunities and maybe relationships with Real Madrid or other large teams. I have an U14, U15, U16, U17, and U18.
