Newly appointed Hearts of Oak head coach Mas-Ud Didi Dramani has expressed confidence in Kamaldeen Sulemana’s ability to succeed at Atalanta.
The Ghanaian winger is set to complete a move from English Championship side Southampton to the Serie A club in a deal reportedly worth €17.5 million, with an additional €4 million in add-ons.
Sulemana is expected to sign a four-year contract with the Italian side.
Dramani, who previously coached Sulemana at Danish club FC Nordsjaelland before the player’s transfer to Stade Rennais, believes the 23-year-old has the qualities needed to excel in Italy’s top flight.
“He will be better in Serie A. I think he will excel,” Dramani told JoySports.
“Speed is a huge component when it comes to talents. When you have a player who can run but can’t yet pass the ball perfectly, you give him time. He will run with the ball and learn how to pass,” he added.
Sulemana is also set to reunite with his former Southampton manager, Ivan Jurić, at Atalanta.
The speedy attacker joined Southampton in January 2023 for a club-record fee and featured 26 times in the recently concluded Premier League season, scoring one goal.
