05 Jun 2025 Media Team

In an exclusive interview, club captain Kwame Asante reflects on his footballing journey from the streets of Accra to captaining the first African football club in Berlin's league system.

"When I first came to Berlin, I struggled to find a club that understood me — not just as a player, but as a person," Asante explains. "Motherland Berlin SC gave me that. It's more than football; it's a family."

Asante talks about the importance of representation and how the club is creating pathways for talented African players across Europe.
