I learned a lot from UEFA U-16 Development Championship in Serbia - Fatawu Ganiwu

Black Starlets midfielder, Fatawu Ganiwu has opened up about the team’s success at the UEFA U-16 Development Tournament last year 2023.

He says the tournament has taught him a lot of things as he was one of the top players there.

Ganiwu, who played a pivotal role in the tournament and emerged as one of the top performers, credited the experience with providing invaluable lessons and insights.

Recalling Ghana’s U-17 journey in the U-16 UEFA development tournament held in Serbia, where they faced formidable opponents like Spain, Serbia, and Switzerland, Ganiwu reiterated his dedication to reaching the pinnacle of football.

“It was a great tournament in Serbia, we had a very good selected squad of players. We learnt a lot of things there in the UEFA U-16 development tournament. I have got a lot of things I have to work on, I need to do a lot of running and pressing to improve my game.

“I want to see myself at the top level, to become the best player in my position and so I look up to Black Stars Vice-Captain, Thomas Partey and Spanish duo Rodri and Sergio Busquets and sometimes Kevin De Bruyne of Manchester City.”
