Doing what he knows best in games, Emmanuel Lomotey has been brilliant in training since the team assembled in Antalya to prepare for the upcoming International friendlies against Mali and Qatar.

The Amiens midfielder who is rated as one of the best young players in the team is noted for his high pressing game, defensive qualities and long-range shots. The former Villareal player expects to play a big role in the two games – but what does he make of his new team mates and the opportunity to play for Ghana.
