Plavi, Let me introduce you to a STRIKER

Black Stars coach, Goran Stevanovic, keeps inviting Dominic Adiyiah and Prince Tagoe, who have proved time and time again that they are simply not up to the task. Let me introduce Plavi to Richmond Yidom Boakye, who is on loan to Sassuolo (Italy, Serie B) from Genoa (Italy, Serie A).

He has so far score THREE goals for his club, unlike two strikers mentioned above who have ZERO goals for their clubs so far.

These videos should speak for itself Yidom Richmond Boakye (Sassuolo, Italy, 2)

Richmond Yiadom Boakye (born 28 January 1993 in Agogo) started his career with Bechem United and in 2008 went to Vicenza, Italy for a tournament; he was scouted by Genoa, and remained in Italy.

He played in the Primavera U20 Youth League in the 2009–10 season. On 3 April 2010, Boakye made his Serie A debut, against bottom club Livorno. He substituted for David Suazo in the 13th minute and scored the opening goal, but the game ended in a 1–1 draw.
