Published on: 19 November 2021

Ghanaian international, Emmanuel Danso is joining Norwegian outfit Viking FK on loan for the rest of the 2021/2022 football season, footballghana.com can report.

The youngster contracted to Olympic Lyon in France is not in the plans of the first team this season.

Upon the recommendation of former club scout Johan Selvig, Viking FK are signing Emmanuel Danso to bolster their squad for the ongoing Eliteserien season.

“He is a midfielder who can hold most positions in the middle. He is 21 years old and belongs to Lyon. He is registered in the B-squad there,” Viking FK sports manager Erik Nevland told RA.

Speaking on his move, Emmanuel Danso says he doesn’t know much about Norwegian football but is ready to give his all to help the club.

“I have already had high thoughts about the club. There are very nice people here. Both the players and those around. It seems to be a real family club.

“The surface is actually very good. The way Viking plays also suits me well. It is a team that likes to have control of the ball.

“I'm a six. A deep midfielder. That's the role I like best for everyone. My strength is probably good passing play. I can use both feet,” the defensive midfielder told RA.
