Thomas Partey, a Ghanaian player, has spoken out months after news of his conversion to Islam went viral.
He claims that his desire to become a Muslim was motivated by his love for his Moroccan lover.
Thomas Partey said he grew raised among Muslims and doesn't perceive any difference in a video shared by TV broadcaster Nana Aba Anamoah.
Yakubu was the name given to him when he converted, he told Nana Aba.
The news that Ghanaian footballer Thomas Party had converted to Islam went viral in March 2022.
This came after a photo of the midfielder clutching the Quran with a certified marriage official in London went popular on social media.
"Praise is to God who guides whoever wills," the Imam wrote in a tweet. May God Almighty strengthen him in his faith in Islam."
