Raphael Dwamena receives Odartey Lamptey's backing to shine in EPL

Ghana striker Raphael Dwamena has been tipped to shine in the English Premier League.

Former Ghana international Nii Odartey Lamptey who played for Aston Villa believes Dwamena has what it takes to be a success in England.

“He is a young player and I have watched him, he has eyes for goals and very composed,” he told Kasapa FM.

“He is strong and I expect him to do well in England, I expect him to continue his performance and try to do what he was doing in Zurich.

“The English Premier League is a tough League and so he must be serious when he is on the pitch but I see him for greatness.”

Dwamena is due to have his medicals where he will officially sign a contract with the Club in a deal worth 12 million euros.

He will become the sixth Ghanaian in the English Premier League this season after Andre Ayew, Jordan Ayew, Christian Atsu, Daniel Amartey and Jeffrey Schlupp.
