Ghanaian youngster Abdul Fatawu Issahaku is in ecstacy after his move to English Championship side Leicester City FC from Sporting Lisbon.
The young Ghanaian international has joined the Foxes on a season long loan deal from the Portuguese giant for the remainder of the 2023-24 campaign.
According to him, moving to Leicester is an amazing moment for him and he’s happy to be in England and described the club as best for him.
Fatawu said: “I’m so happy. This is an amazing moment for me, I’m happy to be here. For me, from looking at Leicester and how I felt about the coach, here is the best place for me.
“This was the best moment for me to join Leicester. I chose them because I think they can grow me and help me mature. [Enzo Maresca] told me about the plans he has for me and how he wants me to play – how he wants to help me in my football.”
He enjoyed international success in March 2021 when he helped Ghana’s Under-20 team to win the Africa Under-20 Cup of Nations, where he was named player of the tournament.
At senior level, he has represented his country on 14 occasions, and featured at last year’s FIFA World Cup in Qatar.
