{I was 14 when I came here the first time, specifically the Algarve, and was blown away.

“Yeah, it’s true. I’ve never done anything like that but I like it a lot. Never thought it was a job so fun and funny to do. I love the experience! These are moments that will stay in my heart.”
What!! little lee married? am wondering what kind of mentality is in the kiddoo. he doesnt look ghanaian but nice wife
What does he look like you filthy Igbo ape and what do Ghanaians look like?? Does Welbeck, Balotelli, Gyan, Essien, Agogo, all look alike? What type of APES are trolling on our site now?? You filthy nastly smelly Igbo! And if you are a Bantu fuck you too!!!
Atsu doesn’t look Ghanaian? Well I guess he looks like a nigerian to u. And What has his looks goto do here and the job he does? Or Maybe u want him to be your compatriot cos he’s soo much talented?
lol troy.. I just saw his comment and bypassed it because i was unable to squeeze out any meaning from it. So funny!!!
Nigerian Apes are the most pathetic fools on the planet!! Just pathetic filthy baboons!!
She’s just after his money, how is a beautiful girl like that marry an ape like Atsu? No disrespect, but come now? You mean if this ape was selling dry fish and kenke in Kumasi, would he pull a nice girl like this? She will divorce him and get his money( I hope that does not happen),but thats trend. I hope he puts in a lot of children,I know they won’t be ugly as most Apes in Ghana that talk sh!t on Zambians. Shooot!
Filthy nasty Igbo APE! you dirty filthy Igbo moron who is pretending to be Zambian now.. Filthy ape who calls himself KING!! Don’t think I have not sniffed you out you dirty animal! Your time is up!! Filthy dog!!
Igbo chimp!
Even MBESUMA with his december head “kwraaa” has women following him let alone Atsu. Wipe your mouth on the floor for non of your Zambian players can be compared to Atsu.
Eeeeeiiii ATSU! Hmmmmmmmm! WELL DONE!!!!
What do you mean by well done you filthy Berlin based ape!!! Well done what?? For living in Porto?? He must continue to prove himself!
this guy is married at 21? huh”? do I smell a rat? apart frm Wayne Rooney, who marries at 20
Check the age of theo Walcott when he got married. It’s difficult to stay single in a foreigne land, earning so much money and enduring boredom.
Boredom, what boredom in a foreign land and as a player of a wellknown (world)club? I hope they both sought very good counselling and legal advice before marriage! “Its a long journey, VERY LONG JOURNEY!”! For better or …. ! From now onwards its 50 – 50 what you both earn or lose! It doesn’t matter whether you earn $200.– and she $5000.– at the end of the day its HAS to 50/50, UNLESS you os she HAS TAKEN THE “RIGHT” STEPS OR ARE VERY SURE OF YOUR “HEART”! IT IS NOT THE AGE WHICH IS IMPORTANT, BUT RATHER THE HEART!!!
By the way, the whole issue is a private affair of the couple. Its unfortunate that this has been brought to the public/media.
@GH please cross check your fact about Theo Wilcott and come again
Are you kidding me. ATSU watch your wallet.
Zambia Soccerman ,no doubt u dnt hav talents in ur country,kwasiaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaa
Why are all of you acting as if she is Fine… I’ve had MUCH better…
Many of you must be ugly Nigerian and Zambian Chimps trolling here that is why you are salivating over this average chick…
hey guys why cant you rather discuss about what that woman/girl said about her husband instead of talking vaguely…huh? pls we are not here to insult each other to make the agguement “so interested”…by the way is there any astonish news about Atsu’s marriage? what makes anyone so supprise this boy has gotten married to a white girl at his age? is this the first time anyone hearing a news like this? Look guys we shouldn’t be so barbaric about this news as it may go a long way to depict how we african are still uncivilised still living in a dark..if we dont have any good comment to make about this particular headline i think we better should shut up then..thank you
I agree to some extent but, Nigerians(Especially those from the South) And Zambians have invaded this site!!!!
In the end if they insult they have to be put in their place.
Good life, live it well.
thats life when u guys travel outside the african continent n u are taken 4 granted u tend to cry foul play but these are little little things we do to allow this white people to take us 4 granted thinking their race is much better than us u guys shd make africa proud no matter u do u are black n thats d best race u fit in
Nobody said Congratulations to Atsu? That’s not the true spirit of soccer fans.

May God bless Atsu abundantly and let him rise up big time in European football because of his heart desire of humanitarian activities.
Congrat Atsu! good match, he who finds a wife receive favor from the Lord You are blessed continue to showcase your talent and your good intesion towards mankid.

I think is high time we eschew from insulting one another, whether black or white, Zambian, Ghanaian, Nigerian, we are all created in one image of God hence one people. Let us therefore respect one another and always sound positive
