Sunny, who speaks fluent Mandarin and likes to mingle with children on the green field, is a foreign coach at the Loudi Football School in Hunan Province.

This former Nigerian U17 national youth player came to China 20 years ago with a football dream. Despite the twists and turns of the player's road, he completed his dream on another green field.

  In Loudi Football School, Sonny can take the children to run around the field and teach them football skills every day.

During the epidemic in 2020, Sonny participated in the "Football + English" live broadcast launched by the Loudi Football Association, and taught the children who were suspended from school to practice football skills and learn English through live video.

Because the course is practical and interesting, their most live broadcast has reached 300,000 people, many of whom are foreign friends, so they have been praised by the State Sports General Administration.

Afterwards, they launched the "Football + Chinese" live broadcast specially for foreign friends, taking them to learn Chinese and appreciate Chinese culture.
