“Yes, I prefer playing here because players in Africa want to travel and play in Europe.

“Bayern Munich is a big club and I went there for trials. I learned a lot because they have good and experienced players so it’s not easy to be there and I learned a lot.

“I was in Ghana and my dad called me that this team (Dundee United) were interested in me so I have to come here and do my best for the team.”
