Memphis Depay, a Barcelona player, met King Otumfuo Osei Tutu in Ghana.

The 28-year-old actor is on vacation in Ghana, West Africa, reconnecting with his roots.

Depay was greeted warmly upon his arrival and has since been seen playing football with children on the street.

The Dutch international also presented Ghanaian President Nana Akufo-Addo with a Barcelona jersey.

Depay detailed his meeting with Ghana’s King on his official Instagram account.

The Ghanaian King, according to Depay, explained that he knew his grandfather before traveling to Europe and that they were best friends.

The message by Depay said, “Meeting King Otumfuo Osei Tutu II was very special for me.

“The words he spoke to me made me realize who I am and everything makes sense now.”

He told me how my grandfather was his best friend before he passed away and how he was known for his extravagant way of dressing. He was the first person he saw wearing a bow tie.

“I nearly lost my grandson but he’s back now and there for you belong here.

Those words of the King to me will travel with me and will change many things in my life. #proudashanti 🇬🇭.
