Ghana winger, Abdul Fatawu Issahaku is full of excitement after scoring his first career hat-trick in Leicester City's thumping of Southampton.

Issahaku also served an assist in the 5-0 win to mark a five-star performance at the King Power Stadium on Tuesday night.

An excited Issahaku struggled to find words to describe his feelings as the Foxes' Premier League return became imminent.

"I don’t think I can tell you how I feel," he said after the game. "It’s so amazing and I feel so happy for this day. This is what we’re here to do and we are just going more and more where we want to.

"I’m so happy. It was a big day. Everyone, including the bench and the whole team, was supportive. We ended up getting the three points so it was a good day.

"As I said in previous interviews, we have come a long way to lose what was in our hands. We’re working hard and this is why we’ll keep going until we get to where we want."

Issahaku has made 18 goal contributions in the Championship since joining Leicester on loan from Sporting Lisbon.
