Ishmael Addo for Perugia?

Italian Serie A club Perugia is the latest club to pursue Ghana wonder-kid Ishmael Addo by extending an invitation to him for trials. Agents of the club, Wright and Wright Limited, a company managed by former England international, Ian wright sent the invitation to the player last week following an initial contact through a website.
Ishmael, currently playing for the U-20 team in Ethiopia, was expected to leave for Italy on March 11 as plans are already in progress to ensure that the player is in Italy after the Black Stars' world cup qualifier against Nigeria on Sunday.
Addo was scheduled to have trials with Ukrainian side, Shaktar Donetsk last month, but seems to have abandoned the idea. The players is still waiting to join the highest bidder - a result of the many invitations at his disposal and will launch his career abroad this year.
