Few think of Daniel Amartey as a previous Premier League winner, but he is, as he joined Leicester in January that special 15/16 season, and he was in and out of the team, used frequently the season after as an alternative to fill the gap after Ngolo Kantè in midfield.

A number of injuries and on the fringe from time to time has seen this season six years on from that fantastic title win, in real the breakthrough for Daniel Amartey.

He has been steady in the back alongside Soyuncu and it looks as if Brendan Rodgers could drop his chace for a central defender if Amartey can adjust his game to this level for the rest of the season.

Dan Amartey had nearly 2 years out after a serious ankle injury he suffered in 2018.

Now he’s battled his way back to become a first XI regular at LCFC… & with 2 top class performances v Nigeria, has helped take Ghana to Qatar.

One of the best players in the WC play offs IMO. pic.twitter.com/jc5RiTGYKL

He helped his nation Ghana to a great qualification to Qater and will most certainly play in the World Cup coming up later this year. Previous a player in Scandinavian leagues with FC Copenhagen and Swedish club Djurgarden.

TCF feel that Daniel Amartey deserves a quality run in his best position as he has served the team greatly in his games this season.
