Ghanaian budding winger Isaac Atanga trained for the first time at MLS side FC Cincinnati on Monday.
The 20-year-old joined the Major League Soccer club in the winter transfer window on a two-year deal with an option for extension but his move to the United States was delayed due to paper works.
The former FC Nordsjaelland winger, however, has landed in North America, and was involved in practice on Monday, April 26 as he prepares to make his debut.
“It’s wonderful. I’ve been waiting for this for a long time and finally, I am here. I am really happy and excited to be here,” he said in his first interview with the club.
“I am very impressed by the facilities here. I’ve been to the stadium and the facilities here is top class. It’s amazing,” added the pacy winger.
