Wakaso: I'm not Muntari's replacement

Mubarak Wakaso has brushed aside comparison with AC Milan

star, Sulley Muntari, insisting that he can even play alongside the rugged


left-sided midfielder.

Wakaso has just begun his international career, but his


domination of games, hard tackles and powerful left-footed shots in the Black

Stars camp all resonate memories of a certain Muntari.

The Espanyol utility player however does not buy into the


idea that he is the perfect replacement for the now obviously aging Sulley Muntari.

“I can’t compare myself to Sulley because he is a senior


player and he has done it all both in Ghana and in Europe. He is a top player


so I feel honoured to be compared to him but it must end there because he is


way above me,” Wakaso answered 90 MINUTES enquiries if he is the ‘New Sulley

Muntari.’

He explained: “I really love him (Sulley) because he is a


great player and I’ve always said good things about him since he came on the


scene.

“It’s true that we have similar style but I don’t think I’m here


(Black Stars) to replace him. No. I think he still has a lot to offer the Black


Stars and I look forward to playing alongside him.”
