Ex-Inter Milan star Eto’o: World record Anzhi deal will inspire African youth
Former Inter Milan and Barcelona striker Samuel Eto'o hopes his record move to Anzhi can inspire Africa's youth.
Eto'o says he is proud of his world record €20 million-a-year contract and believes it is a triumph for Africa.
The Cameroon icon declared: "African children may believe if I've achieved this, then so can they.
"I've shown that we have the means to do anything in this world.
"People are proud of my contract."
In addition to having a private jet, translator, driver and a security service, Eto'o revealed he was offered a helicopter - which he rejected.
The striker is happy to drive to the club's training ground like his teammates.
"I am a team player. You have to be like everyone else if you want to win with them."

Looser and stupid minded people like you shouldn't comment on soccer; a sport that is fan based that bring the world together.

Etoo has always been a star and deserve everything he owns.look at yourself in a mirror and tells me who looks like a ***** more you or blacks. how can you call gods creation *****? well i think your spanish,come to America and clean peoples home as your country people do here low life. Etoo get paid by people like you but the difference is they know how much he is worth. people that like to criticize should remember that Barca was a loosing team b4 Etoo joined and they started winning with is goals and work ethics which is compared to non. He is one of the only player that has been very consistence for ten years now. When ever Etoo was injured Barca never won anything. So morons stop being stupid and jealous of this world class star.
