‘Amartey’s been outstanding’ - Leicester City’s Rodgers praises Ghanaian ahead of Arsenal visit

Leicester City manager Brendan Rodgers has picked out Ghana international Daniel Amartey as among the players who have impressed in recent weeks for the Premier League side.

Ahead of the team’s home game against Arsenal on Saturday, Rodgers has said the 26-year-old Ghana international alongside Youri Tielemans, have helped the team to post a good run of results in recent weeks.

“Two other players to have impressed over recent weeks for the Foxes are Youri Tielemans and Daniel [Amartey],” Rodgers told the club’s official website

“While Tielemans has scored stunners, requiring entirely different techniques, in his last two league outings, Amartey has proven to be a stable defensive figure for City too.
