Both joined me during my days at Ghana Angel Soccer Academy (U10 level) at Prampram 2018 and I thought of getting an extra hand to support their development which made me introduce them to their current manager who gladly accepted even without seeing them play at the time” Coach Barnabas said.
Speaking to their manager, Agyapong Boateng, he disclosed how he accepted to be part of the twins’ development process and is currently proud of their current development and progress.
”Yes, the coach told me about twins he discovered and I accepted to be part of their growth even without seeing them play. The first time I saw them play was last year at Offinso against Pac Academy and I was so impressed with their game. We currently have four boys under our care Peter Baah Snr (Keeper), Peter Baah Jr (striker), Alexander Ohene Boateng (midfielder) and Clifford (left back)” the manager cobcluded.
