American flop Freddy Adu still attracting publicity
Posted On Friday, 6th May 2011
Freddy Adu snubbed the chance to play for Ghana at the World Cup but he's now flopping
Benfica forward Freddy Adu is still managing to attract a heap of publicity despite his playing career not reaching the heights it was expected to.
The 21-year old, who was born in Ghana, is currently on loan from the Portuguese giants to Turkish second division club Caykur Rizespor and according to his Twitter page, is still attracting media interest just like what he had back in his MLS days when he was a teenager destined for the top.
‘The Associated press in Turkey is coming to film my training sessions and follow me for 3 days. I might push for my own tv show lol,’ Adu tweeted.
Since his move from Real Salt Lake to Benfica, the former DC United star has had loan spells with AS Monaco, Belenenses and Aris Thessaloniki before moving to Turkey where he has scored three goals in nine appearances.

@ JIMMY……… thank u,” Mr. Football Analyst”
dwelbek wont frop biaa.just because he wont played for Ghana.stop bad mind.adu is about 33yrs ,daniel is 19.that is diffrese
The bottom line is Freddy should had stayed with Salt Lake City for 2 years to fine tune his game, his circle of friends always giving him bad advice since his days in Washington D.C.. One thing that still sticks in my mind how well Jozy A. & Freddy played to together against Brazil U-20 2 years ago.
Actually said he was ‘too good’ for Man United after he had a trial with us.
A lot of people seem to be fooled by the talent of youngsters sometimes, a good, humble attitude is the most important trait. Just ask Chicharito Hernandez
Funny if his career had panned out, you Fair-weather Ghanians would be calling him “Ghanian Great” not “American” anything…
I am an american doctor. With the help of the Catholic Church in Ghana, Cardinal Peter Turkson and many others, I have founded an organization to bring much needed medical care to the impoverished people of that country. Can you put me in touch with Freddy to ask him for help in supporting this project? We need a high profile celebrity to assist in fund raising. Please see our web site: for more information.
thank you.
Sincerely,
Dr. Joseph Marotta
