Black Stars forward, Benjamin Tetteh, says he could have done a lot better than he did during his time in Turkey.
The forward played for Turkish side Yeni Malatyaspor between 2020 and 2022 before signing a deal with English Championship side Hull City last summer.
During his spell with Malatyaspor, the 25-year-old was directly involved in 24 goals in 60 games across all competitions.
He scored 14 times and provided 14 assists in 4,609 minutes but Tetteh believes he could have done better if he had worked hard enough.
"If I had worked harder, I could have done way better. I didn't take it too easy [in Turkey] but I just didn't do enough for myself," he said on Star Connect.
"That was the inspiration for coming to England because there you go hard or you go home. Because after I terminated my contract with Malatyaspor I could have gone to Arabia or anywhere I wanted but when the offer came from England I was like 'okay'."
The forward added that the move to Hull City didn't come as a surprise for him as suggested by many.
"I wasn't because when I was in Sparta [Prague], I had quite a number of Premier League clubs that wanted me but there were management issues so it couldn't happen."
Tetteh recently resumed training with the Championship side after fully recovering from a hamstring injury that required surgery.
