Ghana Premier League Team Of The Season - Fabio Gama picks a spot Featured

Hearts of Oak emerged victorious of the 2020/21 season after winning the league for the first time in twelve years ending their over a decade drought.

 
Your most trusted sports hub, Kickgh.com brings to you our team of the just ended season in a 3-4-3 set up.
 
GK- Razak Abalora (Asante Kotoko)
 
The enterprising shot-stopper has been outstanding since joining the Porcupine Warriors prior to the start of the season having spent some time in Tanzania. He kept 12 clean sheets in 24 matches and completed 10 in his opening 15 games. His abilities kept him a solid part in the senior national team, Black Stars.
 
LCB- Raddy Ovouka (Hearts of Oak)
 
The Congolese lateral has proven for the past years to be the best left back in the country arguably, and this season was no exception having propelled the 'Phobians' to their long awaited league triumph. His stellar display has seen him cemented his position on the left in the Congo Brazaville national team and has been enjoying regular football with the Red Devils. With two assist and a goal, he wins a spot in the team.
 
 CB- Abdul Ganiyu Ismail (Asante Kotoko)
 
The stalwart defender enjoyed his best ever season in the Ghanaian topflight despite losing the league title to their arch-rivals netting four goals as a defender for the 'Kum Apem' lads. He moved on to have a great debut for the Black Stars and is gradually becoming a mainstay in the senior national team.
 
RCB- Rashid Mohammed (Eleven Wonders)
 
Eleven Wonders managed to escape relegation in the just ended campaign due to collective performance but a standout output from their captain throughout has been sensational bringing him onto the radar of lots of clubs in the country. He won five MOTM accolades and assisted twice as a centre-back.

DM- Benjamin Afutu (Hearts of Oak)
 
One of the concrete reasons Hearts of Oak won the league will have to do with the fact that, they were able to keep Afutu till the end of the season. The bullish midfielder brought balance in their midfield and was in charged of all combative works and cover ups having netted five crucial goals throughout the season, all with his head 
 
DM- Gladson Awako (Great Olympics)
 
The experience playmaker was doubted by many before the start of the season but kept all those mute in the early part of the season with his dazzling display netting from different angles and was a specialist when it comes to deadballs. Despite facing injuries at a point, the ex- TP Mazembe man scored 6 goals with 7 assists and banged four MOTM awards, earning his first Black Stars call up in the process.
 
AM- Fabio Gama (Asante Kotoko)
 
Another character who suffered lots of criticisms and was given a little chance to prevail in the just ended season was Fabio Gama, who arrived in Kumasi from Brazil. He silenced all his critics with 5 goals, 7 assists and 3 MOTMs in his first ever experience on the continent.
 
CM- Augustine Boakye (WAFA)
 
The brilliant prodigy has been brilliant throughout his debut season and has been the main man and the fans favourite at Sogakope contributing to massive 21 goals, scoring 9 and providing 12 assists- making him the top assister in the just ended league.
 
RF- Ibrahim Salifu (Hearts of Oak)
 
The skillful winger proved his worth right from the commencement of the season, starring to be the fans favourite at Techiman and replicated the same thing when he joined the Phobians in the second phase. Not only did he win the league but also provided 7 assists and won 8 MOTMs, making him the highest grinder of that accolade.
 
LF- Kwame Peprah (King Faisal)
 
Kwame Peprah started really well and also ended the campaign on a higher note finishing as the player with the highest number of goals involvement in the league; He scored 12 and  assisted 10 making him the second highest top scorer and assister in the 2020/21 season. One of the main reasons King Faisal survived! 
 
CF- Diawusie Taylor (Karela United)
 
Diawusie Taylor looked obvious to finish as the top scorer of the season, a target he set for himself even before the season begun and of course he was able to achieve that task netting an incredible 18 goals to complete it but unfortunately that couldn't push his side to the ultimatum having led the league more than any other club in the first round. He has previously won the goalking in the Normalisation Committee Special Cup and also in the second tier with Bibiani Gold Stars in 2016.
