🎙️David Beckham defends Jeremy Doku against critics saying ‘he’ll never get that moment back’
🗣️“I’ve seen some people saying Jeremy Doku is letting his country down by leaving for the birth of his child, and I think that’s completely unfair.
Football is incredibly important, but there are moments in life that are bigger than the game. Becoming a father for the first time is one of them.
People talk a lot about family values in football until a player actually chooses his family, then suddenly it becomes a debate. Jeremy has given everything for Belgium whenever he’s pulled on that shirt. Missing a match or two to be present for the birth of his child doesn’t make him any less committed to his country.
When your career is over, medals and trophies stay in a cabinet. The memories of being there when your child enters the world stay with you forever.
Anyone criticising him should put themselves in his shoes for a moment. I think he’s making a decision that any good father would be proud of.”
