"I believe in God that COVID-19 will soon be a history for football to bounce back and we will do what we know best to continue our dream" he added.

"I looked up to several great defenders across the globe to emulate because I want to become one of the greatest so I do not have a particular one as a role model but I watch Ghanaian defenders like Afful Harrison, Samuel Inkoom, i also funcy European laterals such as Dani Carvajal, Alexander Arnold and Cal Walker", he said.
