Ex Arsenal star, Alex Son builds school in his hometown in Cameroon

Former Arsenal and Barcelona midfielder Alexandre Song has decided to give back to the society in his hometown in Cameroon.

He has reportedly built an international school in the economic capital of Cameroon, Douala.

The institution named Canadian International School and College boasts of a day care, nursery, primary and secondary school.

“I am delighted to have finished this project which was so close to my heart to make my small share of contribution in our beautiful and dear country I present to you Canadian school,” Song wrote on Instagram.

Aside his new investment in education, the 33-year-old owns an established business in the fashion industry named ‘Systeme Tchakap’.

Song is currently without a club after he was released alongside eight other players by Swiss top-flight club Sion in March because they refused to take a pay cut following the outbreak of coronavirus.
