2023 Africa Cup of Nations player of the tournament, William Troost-Ekong, has recently launched his foundation, Soccernet.ng reports.

The PAOK F.C. star, who has been sidelined for a while, is actively working towards making his comeback to the game following successful surgery. Ekong was noticeably missed at the Super Eagles international friendlies in Morocco.
