Ghanaian forward Augustine Boakye is determined to make his mark in the French Ligue 1 following his move to AS Saint Etienne in the current transfer window.
The 23-year-old attacking midfielder has penned a four-year deal with the Greens after an impressive spell at Austrian club Wolfsberger AC, where he notched 10 goals in 21 Bundesliga starts.
Boakye, a product of the West Africa Football Academy, is enthusiastic about the prospect of competing in France’s top tier.
“Joining AS Saint-Étienne to experience the French championship fills me with pride,” Boakye conveyed to the media department at Etienne.
“Ligue 1 is a league that has always captivated me, and ASSE is an illustrious club. I had the opportunity to converse with my friend, Lucas Gourna, who spoke highly of it! “I can hardly wait to explore this esteemed club from the inside and engage with its passionate fan base!”
Boakye formerly plied his trade for West Africa Football Academy in the Ghanaian Premier League, and despite his domestic success, international representation still awaits.
