Ghana defender Daniel Opare reveals English Premier League dream
10th August 2018
Ghana defender Daniel Opare has revealed that he dreams of playing in the English Premier League.
The 27 year old signed a two-year deal with Belgian club Royal Antwerp from Augsburg in the summer transfer window.
Despite his brilliant start to life in Belgium, Opare insists his heart is set on a move to England and is hoping it happens sooner rather than later.
"When Luciano D'Onofrio phoned me and told me about the Antwerp project, I was immediately enthusiastic. Look at the stadium, the training infrastructure. Okay, it's a different level than in Germany, for example, but it's great," he said.
"Together with the club, I want to develop myself further, I want to get along, prove myself and then probably leave, that's how it goes in today's football. The Premier League remains a dream," he added.
He started his career at Ashanti Gold in his native country before spells in Tunisia, Spain and Turkey.
