But it’s his performances for Nations FC over the past year that has caught attention.

A mainstay in the Nations FC team, Simpson has started all nine games this season, winning one MVP award and registering 6 clean sheets in the process. Blessed with an exceptional ball striking technique, Simpson can be the Black Stars weapon from set pieces. 

Emmanuel Antwi (Kotoko)

Asante Kotoko’s Emmanuel Antwi has made a good impression in the Ghana Premier League this season. The 28 year old attacking midfielder has started every league game of the Porcupine Warriors, scoring once so far.

He joined Kotoko at the start of the season on a three year deal from Great Olympics where he scored 6 times last season. Antwi has shown his versatility over the years, and has featured as a left winger and a central midfielder at times.
