Ghana youngster, Ernest Nuamah, has expressed his excitement to be playing alongside fellow Right to Dream graduate, Mohammed Kudus, after watching him on TV.
The two played together in the Black Stars’ last three games, with both scoring in the last two games against the Central African Republic and Liberia.
In the Liberia game on Tuesday, Nuamah scored the opening goal and assisted Kudus to net Ghana’s second.
Speaking after the game, the Lyon winger was thrilled to have the opportunity to play with Mohammed Kudus and other senior members.
“It feels good,” Nuamah said when asked about playing alongside Kudus. “They are the players we look up to, and not only him, a lot of the senior players in the squad.
“It is also a motivation for us like being on the same pitch with them is a motivation and this keeps me going.
“Once I was watching him [Kudus] on the TV and now, I’m on the pitch with him.”
Ernest Nuamah made his Black Stars debut in the AFCON qualifier against Madagascar in July and now has two goals and in three games for Ghana’s senior national team.
