Dutch-Ghanaian forward Ernest Poku continued his fine form in the German Bundesliga as he scored and provided an assist in Bayer 04 Leverkusen’s emphatic 6-0 victory over FC Heidenheim on Saturday.
The 21-year-old was in dazzling form, linking up brilliantly with his teammates as Leverkusen dominated from start to finish. Poku’s pace, creativity, and sharp movement were constant threats to the Heidenheim defense throughout the game.
He got on the scoresheet with a composed finish before setting up another goal with a clever assist, showcasing his growing confidence and importance in Xabi Alonso’s attacking setup.
With his latest contributions, Poku has now registered four goals and two assists in just nine league appearances this season — an impressive record for the young winger.
Fans and analysts alike have praised his development, with many seeing him as one of the brightest young talents in the Bundesliga. His performances continue to strengthen his case for a potential call-up to the Ghana national team, given his dual heritage.
Leverkusen’s big win keeps them firmly in the title race, and Poku’s form could prove vital in their push for silverware this season.
