Footballers across the world are very protective of their kids, rarely putting them under the spotlight.
However, they are quick to bring them out onto the pitch especially to celebrate a title triumph.
Perhaps the most iconic image (below) of a Ghanaian footballer and kids belongs Abedi Pele Ayew which was captured on his return to the country after the 1992 AFCON finals loss to Cote d'Ivoire.
