It’s very likely that his stay at the Millerntor is coming to an end. The fact that Daniel-Kofi Kyereh, who has been a pivotal role at FC St. Pauli over the last year and a half, has become the main pillar for Braun-Weiss and the Ghana national team, has been detected by big teams.
Even a promotion, which has now become unattainable, is unlikely to change his decision, but the 26-year-old says farewell with style and respect.
Guido Burgstaller had to leave the game against Nuremberg due to injury. But Kyereh made it abundantly clear from the start that he was ready and eager to take on the duties. He surged on, escaped the Nuremberg defenders, started a lot, and eventually became a goal threat himself.
And, as soon as the home team was handed a penalty, it was evident who would take over for Burgstaller, who was unable to do so. Kyereh, who had missed against Hannover, stepped up and converted calmly. It was his 12 goal of the season, confirming his reputation as the second division’s most productive midfielder.
The Black Stars midfielder was substituted in the 89th minute. He covered over eleven kilometers, had 67 ball contacts, and had a 67 percent tackle rate.
