Parma’s Ghanaian young midfielder Godfred Adolf has vowed to fight his way into the next Ghana Under-20 team.

The 18-year-old has been developing through the Parma youth set up since joining them in 2008 from Ghana Premier League side Bechem United.

“I’ve always look for the opportunity to play for my country so I think this is the best chance for me to make impact. I’m working hard enough,” he told GHANAsoccernet.com

“My coaches always tell me I have the potential to play like Michael Essien. I will definitely be in the Ghana U20 side.”

Adolf plays alongside former Ghana Under-20 defender Bright Addae and David Appiah at Parma .
