Leicester City midfielder Kiernan Dewsbury-Hall says teammate Abdul Fatawu Issahaku was a threat for Leicester City and caused problems for Birmingham in their 3-2 victory on Monday night in the English Championship.
The 19-year-old Ghanaian provided two assists as the Foxes edged out a close win to open their lead on the top of the table.
Speaking in a post-game interview with Leicester’s media channel, Dewsbury-Hall was full of praise for Fatawu and Stephy Mavididi.
“It’s a great ball by Abdul [Fatawu]… They (Mavididi and Fatawu) were very good tonight. From minute one, they were causing problems, and they got their rewards with their goal contributions tonight so I’m very proud of them because they work hard.
“They have great flair, but they also work hard for the team.”
On loan from Sporting Lisbon, Issahaku boasts two goals and five assists in 19 games across all competitions.
The former Steadfast player’s impressive performances raise the possibility of his inclusion in the Black Stars squad for the upcoming 2023 AFCON.
