Fatawu Issahaku Delighted After Leicester City’s First EPL Win of the Season

Ghanaian winger Abdul Fatawu Issahaku has shared his excitement after Leicester City claimed their first victory of the season in the English Premier League.

Facundo Buonanotte’s goal secured a 1-0 win for the Foxes over AFC Bournemouth at the King Power Stadium on Saturday.

Issahaku came off the bench to replace Stephy Mavididi with just eight minutes left in the match.

“Great effort from the lads and amazing 3+ points. Amazing support from the best fans in the world,” Issahaku expressed with joy after the game.

Despite his brief appearance, the Ghanaian winger nearly scored his first goal of the season with a curling effort from the edge of the box, narrowly missing the target.

Jordan Ayew, another Ghanaian on the field, was a standout player for Leicester, playing 88 minutes of the match.

Both Issahaku and Ayew are set to travel to Ghana on Monday to join the national team ahead of their Africa Cup of Nations qualifier against Sudan on Thursday, October 10, 2024.
