"I would want to thank Karim Zito for the work he has done on him. I highlighted his qualities to him and how he could improve on them," Samuel Boadu told Pure FM Sports.
Daniel Afriyie Barnieh was the top scorer in the MTN FA Cup as the Phobians won their eleventh title in the competition.

He won the WAFU Zone B U-20 Cup of Nations, the AFCON U-20 title, the Ghana Premier League, and the FA Cup.
