The best way to look at I think is that the money is always going to exist in football so would I rather a billionaire profit from this or people from all around the globe coming from different backgrounds, some who had truly awful upbringings, benefit from it. I think the answer becomes a lot more straight forward then.
I also think these players coming from less privaliged backgrounds are more likely to do good with there money. Of course you'll get a handful of individuals who spend recklessly and give footballers a flashy bad name, but the charity work that is able to to be done in countries like Senegal (Mane is one of the first names that came to my head due to being a Liverpool fan) would never have been able to have been done without football.
