The head coach of Italian Serie A side Torino, Sinisa Mihajlovic has lauded Ghanaian enforcer Afriyie Acquah for maintaining a positive attitude in training despite the lack of playing time over recent games.

Acquah, 24, is yet to play for Torino since returning from injury last October.

However, Mihajlovic says he has been impressed by Acquah’s impressive work rate and attitude in training.

“Afriyie when in the field always gives everything. His characteristics are different from those of other players I have in midfield. Then you can improve in handling the ball or other things.

”But I think, unlike when I was at Sampdoria with him, he has improved technically.”
