Toure Can Replace Me On The Right Wing For Ghana- Preko

Former Ghana wing wizard Yaw Preko believes that Asante Kotoko striker Ahmed Toure is good enough to remind fans of himself if he gets the chance to play for the Black Stars.
Preko, the only man to have scored two hat tricks for Ghana during his 68 appearances for the Black Stars, told footyghana.com that Toure reminds him so much of himself in his heyday.
‘Toure plays just like I used to. He is skilful, he can cross and he can score goals too. I hope he finalises the naturalisation process so that he plays for Ghana on the right and he will be the new ‘Yaw Preko’.’
The ex-international also believes that Nathaniel Asamoah, who together with Toure fired Asante Kotoko to a 3-1 win over Hearts of Oak in a friendly this afternoon, is also good enough to play for the Black Stars.
‘Nathaniel can also play on the wings, he is quick and he can score as well. I think that if Ghana could have ab attack with Toure on the right, Asamoah on the left supporting Asamoah Gyan in the middle, Ghana’s attack will be lethal again.’
