Alphonso Davies has shown he has a heart of gold. The money he earns by participating in the world championships in Qatar will be donated to charity. This is extremely noble behavior from the Canadian star of Bayern Munich.
A debt of gratitude to Canada
Canada will participate in the World Cup for the second time in its history. Previously, the “Maple Leaf” team faced the best teams in the world in 1986 at the World Cup in Mexico. During this time, the Canadians lost all of their group matches, succumbing to the USSR, France and Hungary, and didn’t even score a goal.
The second approach may be slightly better. After all, the Canadian team includes a star player from Bayern Munich, Alfonso Davies. The 21-year-old’s family come from Liberia, where they fled the civil war. The ‘Die Roten’ left-back was born in a refugee camp and moved to Canada when he was five years old. Now he wants to repay the debt of gratitude to the country that has become his home.
Alphonso Davies will donate to charity
Yesterday, the player from the Bavarian team posted an entry on social networks, which caused a stir on the web. Davies announced that he would donate the money earned from the World Cup in Qatar to charity. With this gesture, the athlete showed his nobility.
“Canada welcomed me and my family and gave us the chance to have a better life. It allowed me to live my dreams. It’s a great honor to play for Canada and I want to pay it back somehow, so I decided to donate this year’s world championship salary to charity. Davis reported.
