St. Pauli manager Timo Schultz, has said that he Ghanaian forward Daniel Kofi Kyereh is likely to stay at the club despite the player being on the radar of top clubs in Germany.
The Ghana international scored a brace for St Pauli in their 3-1 win over Karlsruher in German Bundesliga on Saturday to end an impressive week for the club having scored a superb free kick against Bundesliga side Union Berlin in their 2-1 loss in the DFB-Pokal on Wednesday.
Speaking after St. Pauli’s win, Schultz said: “Kofi’s performance was excellent. His actions, the goals he scores or has already provided – that’s really top class in the second division,”
Speaking on Kyereh\s possible exit after the end of the season, the manager stated that: Schultz “Everything is speculative. Both in terms of us and Kofi’s future. We’ll see, wait for the rest of the season and the summer break. I’m not naïve either, but I think he’s quite comfortable here and would like to stay.”
St. Pauli’s dream of playing the German Bundesliga next season lives on for the neighborhood club with their 3-1 win over KSC – thanks to an outstanding Kyereh. The striker put St. Pauli on course for victory early on with his brace (14th/25th minute). The Hamburg mix with the rise.
Since returning from the Africa Cup of Nations, the Ghanaian international has scored four times in four second division games, has nine goals and ten assists in total this season.
Kyereh recently in an interview about his future at the club said: “My goal is to play in the top league. My wish is to climb with St. Pauli, that would be the best thing for all of us.”
