Black Stars coach Charles Kwablan Akonnor has revealed his excitement after Rachael Dwamena resumed training.
The Real Zaragoza striker resumed training on Saturday, seven months after being forced off by a heart condition.
“I have been there before and it is not easy for a young player to go through what Raphael Dwamena went through,” Akonnor posted on Twitter on Sunday.
“I had a chat with him and I’m happy to see him back in training.”
The Ghana international striker in January suffered a career threatening heart injury which led him going under the knife.
It was the second major health scare that Dwamena has suffered during his professional career.
It would be recalled that in August 2017, his then club FC Zürich had agreed a £10 million fee with English Premier League club Brighton & Hove Albion for the transfer of Dwamena.
He was set to join Brighton subject to passing a medical, obtaining a work permit and international clearance, however the deal fell through after Dwamena reportedly failed his medical due to a heart condition. He instead, remained an FC Zürich player.
At the time, FC Zürich maintained that the deviation detected “has been judged as being neither harmful to health nor compromising the performance of a top athlete”.
