Chief Executive Officer of SC Paderborn 07 Markus Krösche has lavished praises on Ghana striker Bernard Tekpetey.

The 20-year-old sealed the deal on Wednesday morning ahead of the start of the season, hours after Ghana's leading football news outfit had revealed the imminent move.

GHANASoccernet.com exclusively reported earlier this week that the 20-year-old is on the verge of joining the Blue and Black lads after failing to break into the Schalke 04.

The former UniStar Academy ace has completed a switch to the side by penning a three-year contract after passing his medical on Tuesday.

"Bernard can be used on the offense in multiple positions because he is both-footed and quick-thinking. He has a tremendous dynamic, high game intelligence and brings very good technical skills. Through his commitment, we are even more flexible in the offensive, " Mr. Krösche said.

Tekpetey has two caps for the Ghana's senior national team.
