Thankfully the operations – which took place in October – were a success in Kano, the second biggest city in Nigeria.
Saka isn’t the only professional to help BigShoe after Real Madrid defender Antonio Rüdiger pledged to donate all of his World Cup fees to children in Sierra Leone.
Rüdiger set up the The Antonio Rudiger Foundation For Sierra Leone in January and has helped to support underprivileged children in the country ever since.
His actions are in response to congenital clubfoot issue in the country, an issue that affects a lot of children throughout the entirety of their life.
“It hurts to see the circumstances in which Sierra Leonean children grow up,” he explained.
“During surgery, the misalignment is corrected before patients can finally walk and participate in social life, after several months of follow-up treatment.
“I am grateful for these opportunities and I greatly appreciate the privileged position I find myself in.”
