Ghanaian striker, Raphael Dwamena has made some shocking revelation about his past; from ‘rugs’ to stardom.

According to the 21-year-old Black Stars players, he secretely moved to Ghana to live with his girlfriend after his contract with Red Bull ended.

He revealed that his girlfriend has always assisted him financially and motivated him until now.

Speaking on Kumasi based Utimate FM, he said, “Last year was really tough for me in Red Bull. After the season I didn’t have any club because my contract was finished. And because I didn’t play a lot of games in Austria, they told me to find a new club so I had to come to Ghana,” Dwamena exclusively told Kumasi-based Ultimate FM Sports.

“I didn’t have any money on me and my parents had no idea I had come Ghana. It was tough.

“She is a good girl. She helped me because I was staying with her and the sisters. This is the kind of woman you need in life when things are not going on well no matter what it is.

“She was with me throughout and thank God everything is going on well, she is happy and am also happy now,” Dwamena added.

Dwamena joined Austria Lustenau in 2016 where he had an impressive season –banging in 19 goals in over 20 appearances.

Due to such a magnificent debut season, he signed for FC Zurich in January and has since made 19 appearances, starting 15 of them and netted 12 goals in the process.
