Striker David Accam says the experience garnered from Ghanaââ¬â¢s 2015 Africa Cup of Nations campaign will help him thrive at his new club Chicago Fire.
The 24-year-old is chasing his MLS debut on Saturday when Fire face LA Galaxy.
Accam played on two minutes for Ghana at the Nations Cup when he came on late in the opening 2-1 defeat to Senegal.
He believes the experience from his trip to Equatorial Guinea could impact positively in his season.
ââ¬ÅThe Afcon helped me in many ways even though I didn't play much,â⬠he went on, ââ¬Åand now it feels good to be with my team,â⬠the former Right to Dream player told Goal.com
ââ¬ÅOur targets this season are to get into the playoffs and hopefully go all out to win the league title.ââ¬
Accam left Swedish side Helsingborg in December after a successful season where he scored 17 goals in 25 league matches.
