"I'm going to go hard with the team"- Fatawu Issahaku reacts after joining Leicester on a permanent deal

Published on: 16 July 2024

Ghana winger Abdul Fatawu Issahaku is excited to sign a permanent deal with Premier League returnees Leicester City. 

The 20-year-old forward played a pivotal role while on loan at the King Power stadium as the Foxes secured a quick return to the topflight after winning the English Championship last season.

Issahaku's loan deal was made permanent after inking a five-year deal with the former English champions.

“I feel amazing,” he said after signing the deal. “It’s so good to be back and I’m just back to focus again for next season. I feel so much motivation to be in the Premier League.

"It’s something new to me. I’m going to go hard for that, with the team. I can’t wait to see [my team-mates]. I’ve missed them so much. They are like a family now. I didn’t think I’d miss some of them, but when I went away, I was really missing them! I can’t wait to see them.”

The talented forward moved to Europe three years ago to join Portuguese outfit Sporting Lisbon but after struggles to settle, he joined Leicester on loan, where he made a 20 goal contribution.
