Once hailed as one of Ghana’s brightest footballing prospects, Mohammed Aminu's journey from a teenage prodigy at WAFA to being signed by Premier League giants Manchester City was seen as a fairytale.

However, after a series of unsuccessful loan spells and an eventual release from the English giants, Aminu has taken a different route, one dominated by high-end living off the pitch.

Another person quizzed:

''I want to know the where Aminu is playing now..Once upon a time tipped to be a great Ghana player.''
