Black Stars and Leicester City winger Abdul Fatawu Issahaku is ready for a fresh start after enduring a long spell on the sidelines due to injury. The Ghanaian attacker missed the entire Premier League season last term after suffering an anterior cruciate ligament (ACL) injury while on international duty.
Now fully recovered, Issahaku is set to play a key role in Leicester City’s push for promotion back to the Premier League following their relegation. The 20-year-old has already made an impression in pre-season, scoring a stunning solo goal against Fiorentina, showcasing signs of his sharp return to form.
Motivated and determined, Issahaku shared an emotional message on Instagram ahead of Leicester’s Championship opener against Sheffield Wednesday on August 10:
“The comeback is personal. Thanks to everyone for the support throughout this journey, was lovely to be back again at the King Power. See you next weekend for the main business.”
With eyes on both club success and a potential recall to the Ghana national team ahead of the September World Cup qualifiers against Chad and Mali, Issahaku is keen to make an immediate impact and reignite his promising career.
His return not only boosts Leicester’s attacking options but also marks a significant step in the winger’s journey of resilience and recovery.
