Akaminko excited with rehabilitation; yearns to join Eskisehirspor's pre-season

Ghana defender Jerry Akaminko is continuing his rehabilitation at his Turkish side Eskisehirspor who have begun pre-season training.

He underwent a successful ankle surgery in Miami last month after twisting his fibula in Ghana’s pre-World Cup warm-up against the Netherlands.

The centre-back landed awkwardly on his left ankle rupturing his fibula and was ruled out of the World Cup.

Akaminko posted on his Twitter page: “Back in Turkey. A bit of work in the pool. Rehabilitation is going well. Can’t wait to start running again.”

The 26-year-old made 28 appearances for Eskisehirspor last season in the Super Lig.
