Ex-Ghana international Nii Odartey Lamptey has decided to to name a facility at his football academy after his late mentor Stephen Keshi.

This is to honour the former Super Eagles captain and coach, who died last June, for his contribution to football and for opening his doors and the path to his career.

Lamprey has fond memories of Keshi who helped him find his feet at Belgian side Anderlecht in the early 90s.

In a chat with footballlive.ng,  Lamptey revealed he will launch his academy – after the judgement on an ongoing alimony case -in Ghana and will use the occasion to honour Keshi '' my father who got me where I am today.''
