"The players have been welcoming even though I don't know a lot of them. I feel happy to be around such an entertaining group."

"I don't feel frightened because I have been in the colours of the club before. With the help of the supporters and the technical team, I know things will be great."

Both brothers also played for AshantiGold before heading to Europe to continue their careers.
