Wakaso promoted to Villarreal first team

Ghana youth midfielder Mubarak Wakaso has been promoted to Villarreal’s first team just three weeks after impressing on his debut game for the second string side in the Segunda Division, GHANAsoccernet.com understands.

The 21-year old joined Villarreal B after he was booted out by rivals Elche over disciplinary issues.

Wakaso has been given a squad number in the first team squad and sat on the bench in last weekend’s game.

He has also been picked for first team action this weekend at Racing Santander.
