Ghana defender Kasim Nuhu has wished former club Real Mallorca best of luck ahead of their two-legged Spanish La Liga playoff against Deportivo La Coruna.

Los Bermellones are poised to make a return to the Spanish La Liga after finishing 5th on the Segunda Division table.

But Vicente Moreno's men will have to overcome Deportivo La Coruna in a two-legged tie to realise their dream of playing in the top flight for the first time in six years.

Ahead of the first leg encounter, Nuhu who enjoyed a three-year spell at the Estadi de Son Moix, took to twitter to wish his former side good luck ahead of the games.
