Watch: Sancho rushes out of Chelsea camp after West Ham victory to catch Asake’s O2 Arena concert

England international Jadon Sancho wasted no time after Chelsea’s dominant 3-0 win over West Ham, swiftly leaving the team’s camp to attend Nigerian music sensation Asake’s sold-out concert at the O2 Arena, Soccernet.ng reports.

The winger, who played a crucial role in the Blues’ victory, was spotted among the star-studded crowd enjoying the performance of the YBNL artist, known for his hit single ‘Active.’

In a viral video circulating on social media, Sancho, currently on loan from Manchester United, was seen sharing a warm exchange with Asake backstage before the artist took the stage.

Asake’s O2 Arena concert marked his second consecutive sell-out in London, solidifying his status as one of the hottest names in Afrobeat music.

His growing presence in football circles is evident, with Super Eagles and Bayer Leverkusen forward Victor Boniface also attending one of his concerts in Germany.

Most recently, Asake’s track ‘Active’ received a major endorsement from football icon Cristiano Ronaldo, who used the song as background music in an Instagram video that garnered over 2 million likes and more than 30,000 comments. This high-profile recognition continues to elevate Asake’s global status.

Although the Nigerian star is yet to secure a Grammy, his rising popularity and influence, especially among football’s elite, suggest that the prestigious award could be on the horizon.
