Badu in line for Udinese debut

Ghanaian midfielder Emmanuel Agyemang-Badu could be making his Serie A debut just two days after completing his move to Italy's Udinese.

The 19 year-old midfielder who has been presented the number 19 shirt has been named in Udinese's squad to face AC Milan in their weekend fixture.

Badu was issued with his work permit this week as he arrived on Wednesday to begin his career with Udinese after a good showing for the senior Ghana team at the African Nations Cup in Angola last month.

He is the second Ghanaian on the books of Udinese after Kwadwo Asamoah.
