Player name: Emmanuel Ocran
Position: Right wing
Last club: Wa All Stars FC, Ghanaian Premier League (on loan to Real Monarchs)
One thing you need to know
Ocran, 21, joins Real Monarchs with eyes on him from afar, not because he comes from a Ghanaian Premier League side, but because he’s a fringe player for the Ghanaian National Team. He was called up for qualifiers to the African Cup of Nations, and though he didn’t appear, that gives you some idea of the attention people are paying to him.
