The disenchantment thing about betrayal is that it never comes from your enemies. It’s extremely surprising how most times the people you’d take a bullet for, are the ones behind the trigger.
This is exactly the case of former Black Stars and Asante Kotoko’s prolific striker Eric Bekoe who has revealed that he has been betrayed by most of the professional footballers he helped during his playing days.
Eric Bekoe who became a household name during his spell with Asante Kotoko, netting 42 goals in 48 matches for the club made this astonishing revelation during an interview with Isaac Emmanuel Ossae better known as Stonchist D’Blakk Soulja on Hot 93.9FM’s Focal Sports’ show:
” Most of the current professional footballers are very ungrateful…Most of the players I helped during my heyday have neglected me after becoming professional players’. Bekoe said
“For now, i will rather make a mechanic my friend than a current professional player because with the mechanic when i go to him and he gives me Waakye(food) to eat, i know he would give me again the next time i pays him another visit but a current professional footballer would rather screenshot your chats to others simply because you asked him for help – forgetting that you once helped him “. He added
