Abdul Mumin is one of the centrals that offers the most hopes in Ghana and begins to establish his position in Vitória, who made a big bet on the 22-year-old Ghanaian.
He signed until 2024, arriving in the birthplace of the city after much progress in the Danes of Nordsjaelland - Sheffield United, Monaco and Celtic also tried to recruit him.
The defender's qualities, pointed out as a true diamond in the African continent, are flourishing with João Henriques, having in Tondela added the fourth consecutive game as a starter. The coach, who succeeded Tiago Mendes, has made six games and, in this last round, decided on the duo Mumin / Jorge Fernandes, relegating the English Suliman to the bench.
An indicator that the Ghanaian, after initial difficulties - also accused Covid-19 -, is fitting in perfectly with what are the behavioral premises requested by the coach. Mumin is a central player of great physics, trained with the ball and able to be dominant in the duels. The young defender's dreams are told by Mohammed Kudus, a 20-year-old Ghanaian prodigy, who left Nordsjaelland this season for Ajax as a potential successor to De Jong. Kudus and Mumin generated sympathy in Denmark and were given a bouquet of flowers on their farewell. The two players have a strong friendship, which also goes back to the same academy where Right's Dream grew up in Accra. Recovering from a serious injury suffered against Liverpool for the Champions League - his debut in the competition lasted six minutes -, Kudus is very fond of Mumin.
«I know you took on a big challenge. It is committed to surpassing itself, reaching higher competitive levels and fulfilling all your dreams. He expects a lot from him, demands a lot, takes care of all the essential details to grow in the football environment. He is tireless ”, assures the virtuous Kudus, without stopping:“ I do not see that there could be problems in Portugal. He stands out for his mental strength, has everything to be in the best leagues and the best clubs. It will triumph and reach a very high level, at the top. He's the best central defender I've ever played with. »
And Kudus' praise doesn't stop there.
«It will give everything it has to get where it sets out. He's very smart on and off the field. He has many qualities, he has principles he believes in and he does not give up on them ”, summed up the Ajax midfielder.
