West Bromwich Albion forward Saido Berahino has announced plans to start a charitable foundation in his name.

The Saido Berahino Foundation will be launched next week with the purpose of raising funds for charitable work.

'WaterAid' also announced that Berahino will become an official Ambassador for the charity and his foundation will help WaterAid to provide better access to clean water and sanitation to vulnerable and disadvantaged people.

"This is a proud day for me and my family," Berahino said.

"Having grown up in Burundi, I know only too well the devastating impact the lack of access to clean water or sanitation can have on families. It is fundamental to everything and prevents people from lifting themselves out of poverty.

"I'm determined to give something back through the work of my foundation and WaterAid."
