Ghanaian football agent Keikei Erzua told Metaratings.ru that footballers born in Africa find it difficult to prove themselves in Europe due to lack of time to adapt.
– What are the chances of African football players who grew up in Africa, and not in Europe, to break into the top league? Can you single out the most promising players worth looking at?
– It is not easy for footballers born in Africa to show themselves in Europe, mainly because of adaptation and climate. But when there are suitable conditions and time to adapt, it is almost always a 100% return on investment.
I can give examples of talented players born in Africa such as Mohammed Kudus, Camaldin Sulemana, Daniel Amarty, Serie A top scorer Victor Osimhen, Thomas Partey and other quality players including Riyad Mahrez, Mohamed Salah and Sadio Mane.
It also makes a lot of sense to keep an eye on the players in the youth academies that play in the Ghanaian second division. For any interested club, I would recommend a personal visit. I’m sure they’ll find what they’re looking for. Every single day, scouts from all over Europe watch the games in the Ghanaian championships and choose unknown football players, and then they turn into big stars. Like Thomas Partey, for example,” said Erzua.
