A German-based physiotherapy company, Kanzlsperger, in collaboration with its Ghanaian partner, Professor Jonathan Quartey, has made a significant medical donation to the West Africa Football Academy (WAFA).

“We are grateful to Professor Quartey for these items,” he said. “The technical team and players are thankful, as these are expensive items that will support our efforts as a team moving forward.”

Jan Gosgens, Managing Director of WAFA, also commended Professor Quartey for his generosity.

“We are very grateful for this donation,” Gosgens remarked. “We have had a long-standing relationship with him. He was one of our physiotherapists during our Feyenoord days, and that bond continues to this day. We are delighted that he continues to support us, and we look forward to achieving great things together in the future.”

After the presentation, Professor Quartey highlighted his motivation for the donation.

“There has been a long-standing relationship between WAFA and me,” he explained. “I worked with them for 11 years before they moved to Sogakope, and we’ve stayed connected in terms of human resource support.

“I am passionate about rehabilitation and player welfare, so I felt it necessary to provide these items to support the club’s work in that area.”

This is not the first time Professor Quartey has made such a gesture. Earlier this year, he made a donation to Accra Shooting Stars.

Professor Quartey worked with WAFA—formerly Feyenoord—at Gomoa Fetteh from 2003 to 2014, prior to the team’s relocation to Sogakope.

WAFA currently competes in Zone 2 of the National Division Two League.
