Abedi Pele and Tony Yeboah never took their winning bonuses- Joe Addo

Former Black Stars defender Joe Addo has revealed that legends Abedi Pele and Tony Yeboah did not take their winning bonuses and per dimes in the national team and rather gave the money to the rest of the team.

Joe Addo had a great career in the senior national team, playing in multiple AFCON tournaments with Abedi Pele and Yeboah.

In an interview with Joy FM, he revealed the kind of sacrifice those two legends made for the rest of the team.
