Fredi Kanoute and the mosque of Seville

In 2007, former Premier League and Sevilla striker Fredi Kanoute helped the Muslim community in Seville, by donating $700,000 to help them keep their temporary mosque.

More than a decade later that building is struggling to cope with the growing numbers wishing to pray there, and now Kanoute is helping the cause again by aiming to raise more than $300,000 through the Kanoute 4 Seville Mosque campaign. He's been speaking to Tusdiq Din.
