Ghana winger Abdul Fatawu Issahaku has described his dismissal in Leicester City Football Club’s 3-1 loss to Coventry City in the Sky Bet Championship as “painful.”
He said this in an exclusive interview with Leicester City’s official media channel after serving a three game suspension due to the dismissal.
On his return to action, the 19 year old registered an assist in a 5-0 win over for The Foxes over Stoke City and is looking forward to continue his fine form in his loan spell from Sporting Lisbon.
“It was so painful for me. This was the game I wanted to win, but unfortunately I got a red card. It was so bad. I felt so disappointed” he said before adding
“I’ll be so much stronger and more effective now I’m back because I have to achieve what we have fought for now. We want to end this season on top of the table.”
In his first season with Leicester, Issahaku has eight assists and two goals in 24 league appearances and excused himself from selection to the Black Stars squad for the 2023 AFCON campaign.
