Published on: 05 November 2019

Ghana international Richmond Boakye-Yiadom is available for selection after returning  from injury over the weekend to score in Red Star Belgrade's 2-0 win over Proleter in the Serbian Super League to strengthen their lead at the summit of the table.

The 26-year-old is now fully fit and ready for their Uefa Champions League clash against Tottenham at home and hopes his side will redeem themselves after suffering a humiliating 5-0 defeat in the first leg.

Boakye Yiadom missed the clash against Spurs at the Tottenham Hotspur Stadium in match day three of the UCL due to injury.

"I missed the first leg against Tottenham due to an injury I suffered after our second game against Olympiacos which ruled me out for a week. I am currently fit now and thanks to the chance given me by the coach I was able to score my first league goal," he told GHANAsoccernet.com

"I hope I can carry that momentum into the game against Tottenham on Wednesday. We have to redeem ourselves after that humiliating defeat and I’m hoping to score in that game as well", he added.

The Ghanaian has scored four goals in nine games in the Champions League so far this season for Red Star Belgrade.
