January 2016 -- German top-flight side Schalke have captured the hugely talented Ghanaian striker Bernard Tekpetey.


The 19-year-old, who made waves in the second tier of Ghana's football leagues with his excellent scoring ability, sealed the deal with the Bundesliga side.


The strong attacker signed a three-year deal from Ghanaian side Unistar Soccer Academy to complete the dream move.


Tekpetey was signed after spending three weeks on trials with the Bundesliga where he convinced the coaches of his abilities which resulted in the decision to hand him a permanent deal.
