Manchester City and Belgium international winger Jeremy Doku has touched down in Ghana to reconnect with his ancestral roots, much to the delight of fans and well-wishers.
Doku arrived in Accra earlier this week, flashing a broad smile as he stepped out of the airport terminal—a clear indication of his excitement to be back on Ghanaian soil. Born to Ghanaian parents in Belgium, the 22-year-old has often spoken proudly of his heritage, and this visit marks a meaningful return to the land of his forebears.
During his visit, Doku is expected to meet with extended family members and engage in cultural activities that highlight his deep ties to Ghana. Sources close to the player reveal that he plans to visit key historical and tourist sites, including the Kwame Nkrumah Mausoleum and Cape Coast Castle, as well as interact with young aspiring footballers in local communities.
On social media, Doku shared snippets of his arrival, captioning one post with, “Feels good to be home.” The post has since gone viral, with thousands of fans welcoming him “home” and expressing their pride in his achievements.
There are also reports that Doku will pay courtesy calls to some football and government officials while in Ghana. His visit not only reaffirms the strong links between Ghana and its diaspora but also serves as inspiration for young players who dream of making it to the top of world football.
Jeremy Doku enjoyed a successful season with Manchester City, helping the club retain the Premier League title and playing a key role in Pep Guardiola’s high-powered attack. Despite his European success, his Ghanaian identity remains close to his heart—a connection he now honours through this homecoming.
