Ghanaian prospect, targeted by Chelsea and Bayern Munich, set to train with Lens
Ghanaian prospect Fatawu Ganiwu (16), who is a target for many top clubs around Europe, is set to train with Ligue 1 club RC Lens in November.
Ganiwu, who played for the Ghana U17 team at the UEFA Youth Championship in Serbia earlier this year, has caught the eyes of clubs across Europe. Chelsea, Bayern Munich and Red Bull Salzburg are all interested in the Ghanaian youth international, but according to Italian journalist Fabrizio Romano, Ganiwu is set to train with UEFA Champions League side Lens later this year. He will also watch Les Sang et Or in action in the Champions League during his stay next month.
However, Ganiwu is also set for trials at other European teams. The Ghanaian prospect has featured for Sportive Avranches domestically, a second-division club in the GAFRA league. His performances have drawn comparisons to former Chelsea, Real Madrid, AC Milan and Olympique Lyonnais midfielder Michael Essien.
