Aminu Mohammed had a disappointing tournament at last year’s U-17 World Cup in India but the teenager wants to put that behind him and concentrate on the Ghana Premier League.

“Yes, I had some difficult time with the national U-17; the tournament didn’t go as expected. But I’m not thinking about that anymore. I’m now concentrating on getting better every day in order to help WAFA to achieve our target” he said.

“I know how to play free kicks. I practice them a lot [at] training; sometimes you need luck before you can get the right target. I’m happy I’m getting lucky with them now”.
