English Championship side Leicester City FC have officially confirmed the signing of Ghanaian young attacker Abdul Fatawu Issahaku from Sporting CP Lisbon.
The Foxes have signed the young but talented player on a season from the Green and Whites outfit for the rest of the 2023-24 season as they hope to return to the Premier League.
The promising 19-year-old Ghanaian arrives at King Power Stadium having impressed at domestic and international level in the early stages of his career and will now link up with Enzo Maresca’s squad for the 2023/24 Sky Bet Championship season.
His displays for Steadfast FC earned him a loan move to Ghanaian Premier Division side Dreams FC in October 2021, where he continued his fine form before switching to Sporting Lisbon in April 2022.
He made his senior debut for the Portuguese side against Rio Ave in August 2022, and featured in their UEFA Champions League campaign last term.
He enjoyed international success in March 2021 when he helped Ghana’s Under-20 team to win the Africa Under-20 Cup of Nations, where he was named player of the tournament.
At senior level, he has represented his country on 14 occasions, and featured at last year’s FIFA World Cup in Qatar.
