The Bundesliga outfit Schalke 04 recently signed the http://www.senore.com/Football-soccer/Ghana-c2905 midfielder, Anthony Annan from Rosenborg FC. The Schalke Coach, Felix Magath is very pleased by his consistency and has said that there are great chances for him in the upcoming match against Borussia
Dortmund.
Magath in his recent statements has revealed that the defensive midfielder is a very promising act for Die Knappen. The coach said, “He has made a fantastic impression. He is excellent in possession, lively, aggressive and he wants the ball.”
The Ghanaian International made his debut for the Ghana National Team in 2007, and since then has represented the side on 41 occasions. Annan was also a part of the squad that competed in 2010 FIFA World Cup in http://www.senore.com/Football-soccer/South-Africa-c757.
Annan started his club career at Oak SC, the Ghana Premier League outfit. At Oak, he was known as the best young midfielder in Ghana combining his midfield skill with some goal-scoring artistry. Soon he was spotted by European leagues and his first transfer
was to http://www.senore.com/Football-soccer/IK-Start-c39558, the top flight outfit in the Norwegian league system.
The midfielder had sometime compromised to injuries, but soon was back on the field and tracked down by many elite clubs of Europe. Arsenal, Everton and Blackburn http://www.senore.com/Football-soccer/Rovers-c40385 were the possible candidates but De Blaa first team responsibilities kept him on the
back.
After joining Rosenborg in 2008 for a fee of 1.2 million Euros, Annan mastered his skills. In his 3-year tenure at the Troillongan, he played the vital role in playmaking in the middle of the field.
Annan joined Schalke 04, the Bundesliga outfit, as a possible replacement for http://www.senore.com/Football-soccer/Ivan-Rakitic-c17333, who got transferred to Sevilla for an undisclosed fee. The midfielder has been able to comfortably adjust in the defensive midfield role and has made his impact on
the team officials. Magath referring to the quality of his game play and the upcoming game said, “He knows what to do right away and is quick to get forward. He looked very impressive and may well be able to help us this weekend.”
Schalke are headed towards a very important match against top of the league side, Borussia Dortmund. The Borussians have been very strong throughout the term, but Schalke being the oldest rivals, would be looking forward to snatch a win against the hosts.
Annan is expected to see more exposure in the game, and he might be the key to victory for Die Knappen.
