Amartey ready to test his mettle against Barcelona

Ghana defender Daniel Amartey will get the opportunity to test his mettle against the very best when his side take on Barcelona in their final pre-season game before the community shield this Sunday.

The Ghana defender has looked ready in all the pre-season games he has played and will be looking forward to that game against Barcelona in Stockholm on Wednesday.

Amartey joined Leicester from FC Copenhagen in Denmark and played a total of five games as the Foxes won an unbelievable league title last season.

The 23-year-old caused a penalty in their last pre-season game against PSG but enjoyed a good game and could have scored with a well-timed header.

He will get an opportunity to measure his smoothness level against the likes of Messi and Suarez before they face the likes of Wayne Rooney and Zlatan Ibrahimovic in the community shield this weekend.
