President Nana Addo Dankwa Akufo-Addo met with the Fifa President, Gianni Infantino, during the latter’s one day visit to Ghana.
The meeting touched on many topics and led to some revelations about the football supporting habits of the nation’s Commander-in-Chief.
Akufo-Addo told Infantino that personally, he is a supporter of Kumasi Asante Kotoko, which comes as no surprise. He also declared his love for Spanish giants Real Madrid.
“Ghanaians are very passionate fans and followers of football, both local and international.” he said.
“I, since childhood have been an unrepentant and unremitting supporter of Real Madrid. Alfredo Di Stefano, Ferenc Puskas, Gento [Francisco] all played in the great side of the 1950s. I am also a great fan of Asante Kotoko,” he added.
Infantino ascended to the Fifa role after winning elections last year, replacing the long time head of the body who went down in a corruption scandal – Joseph Blatter.
