Popular Manchester United star, Angel Gomes has reacted to the viral video of his visit to T.B Joshua’s church for healing four years ago.

Angel Gomes recently revealed that he visited the church simply because his mother asked him to.

According to him, he is from a Christian family and he was only practicing his faith by visiting the popular pastor.

He added that he did not have to explain himself to the world but he did it to clarify for those asking what the video was all about.

His words in the clip, “I’ve been having injuries around my hip and groin which have been affecting me playing. I also suffered ankle injury not long ago which kept me out for a long time.”

“These injuries would come at hard times for me, times when I was having a breakthrough or times when I had to go to a tournament or playing games, these injuries would happen quite frequently.”

Reacting today, he wrote, “Regarding the video that has come out from 2016. I am from a Christian family at the time my mum was a fan of the pastor, and she really wanted me to go. I was going through some issues. From the outside looking in it looks crazy, but I was just practicing my faith.

“I didn’t really need to explain myself but a lot of people was asking me what the video was about. I was young at the time and if my parents thought something was best for Me I would do it. There are far more important issues out there in the world we can tackle.”
