People who know me, love me. People who don't know me love me too... or they hate me.

It surprises me how much children like me, you know? If they look at me as an example, I have a big responsibility.

I want to be the strongest player in the world and score a lot of goals. To do that, I have to improve in every area.

When I score I don't celebrate, its my job, does a postman celebrate when he delivers post?

I'm a naturalized Italian, but I'm from Ghana. I was abandoned by my parents and adopted by two angels. I suffer with racism everyday. I'm the first black to wear the jersey of Italy. I'm not angry, but my life experiencies make me act differently from other people. Then, try to learn more before you criticize me.

Many stories are invented about me - too many stories; almost everyone uses me, and I'd say about 0.01 percent of the gossip is true.

People who know me, love me. People who don't know me love me too... or they hate me.
