Meet one of Ghana’s youngest sensational soccer players
Festus Appau.
Young Festus Appau currently plays for Anokye Stars in
Kumasi and is ready to grab an opportunity to dazzle soccer fans in New York
City, USA.
Bronx Supreme FC, a soccer club in Bronx, New York, have
extended an invitation to the starlet to train with the team and also feature
in the upcoming New York African Cup organized by the African Advisory Council
of the Bronx as well as the opportunity to
represent Ghana in the annual 2016 Cosmos Copa tournament organized by the New
York Cosmos in July 2016.
The 17-year
old prodigy who can play as a midfielder and striker once caught the eyes of
the technical handlers of Ghana’s national U-17 side, the Black Starlets in
2014.
In that same
year, he embarked on a European tour with his team to United Kingdom for a
six-team invitational tournament.
During their
stay in UK Appau and his teammates played against the likes of Whetstone
Wanderers, Omonia Gold FC, Whetstone Lynx, Whetstone Lions, Whetstone Pumas and
Enfield Town Blue.
Appau and
his local team from Ghana were the eventual winners of the tournament.
Appau
believes this will be a great opportunity to gain valuable experience both on
and off the field of play that will serve him well in the future.
