Grammy award-winning and international Afrobeat star Burna Boy has just announced his new football academy in Nigeria. The "Burna Boy Football Academy," designed for boys ages 6-16, aims to create an environment where kids can learn the fundamentals of football, combined with education and discipline.
Burna Boy has established training centers in Lagos, Abuja, and Port Harcourt, providing access to world-class coaching and facilities. The academy offers young boys who may have never had the chance to live out their dreams an opportunity to be trained by the best.
In addition to this initiative, Burna Boy has introduced the Burna Boy Football Show, a reality TV series for players ages 18-21, offering them a chance to be scouted by major European clubs such as Manchester City. Featuring them on the reality show allows scouts to watch these football players.
The academy has already started hosting friendly matches to warm up the season with the team and other local schools.
