It was not easy but I think I made the right decision because the way Man City play, I think that is where I wanted to improve more. Man United play good as well\u2026I love both of them but I think the way Man City is structured, they play passing football and it is more technical,\u201d he said.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cOne day I was a bit sick\u2026I didn\u2019t go to school. My stomach was hurting. That day I was in bed and I got a phone call.  Saying you can come back to City they wanna sign you. They will sign you tomorrow or next week if you want. I went to my Dad and Mum and informed them about the development. At the time I didn\u2019t know what to do. It took me three to four days to make a decision,\u201d Yeboah Amankwah revealed how it all started.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cObviously, my Dad is a mentor and a Manager. He plays both roles. I also receive a lot of advice from Rio Ferdinand. He is like a big brother and a mentor. He is a free person and very friendly,\u201d he said on those he takes inspiration from.<\/p>\n<p>The young defender added that he looks up to a lot of footballers but he wants to be himself.<\/p>\n<p>He stressed on how he wants to improve more on his skills and work hard for the rest of the season and years ahead.<\/p>\n<p>Amankwah who is passionate about football is yet to decide whether to play his international football for Ghana or England.<\/p>\n<p><!-- uploaded by: 44 updated by: 44 --><\/p>\n<p><!-- Start of html generated by this->footer() -->\n<\/div>\n<p>\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<a style=\"display:none\" rel=\"follow\" href=\"http:\/\/megatheme.ir\/\" title=\"\u0642\u0627\u0644\u0628 \u0648\u0631\u062f\u067e\u0631\u0633\">\u0642\u0627\u0644\u0628 \u0648\u0631\u062f\u067e\u0631\u0633<\/a><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Sports News of Thursday, 28 December 2017 Source: Newshuntermag.com 2017-12-28 Yeboah Amankwah Manchester City youngster, Yeboah Amankwah has revealed why he joined the team instead of Manchester United.
