William Dankyi ready to play in attacking position at Hearts

Hearts of Oak youngster William Dankyi says he is comfortable playing in an attacking position for the club.

The 18-year-old left back was assigned as a winger in last week's 2-2 draw with Liberty Professionals in a friendly.

He was also alternating with Patrick Razak on the right flank as he played 53 minutes.

''I felt good playing in attack because it is not my first time playing there,'' Dankyi told phobians.com

''I actually started as a left winger but my coaches converted me to a natural left back. So playing as a left or right winger in a new role is nothing new to me.

''Honestly, I was a bit rusty because I had not played there for some time in our match with Liberty. But I am willing to play anywhere for the team because playing in different positions will help my all-round game and make me a better and [versatile] player.''
