Manchester United striker Danny Welbeck says his Ghanaian roots are important to him.

Growing up, Welbeck's father was always banging on at him about Black Stars legend Abedi Pele.

"My Dad was always buzzing about Abedi Pele. I was like 'Pele? I only know one Pele.' I've seen YouTube clips now so I know there are two Peles! I've been to Ghana three or four times to see relatives. When I have the chance, I will go back again," he told the Mail on Sunday.
