Leicester City appears poised to make a comeback to the Premier League following their impressive 5-0 victory over Southampton in Tuesday’s match, bringing their total points in the Championship to 94.
Ghanaian international Fatawu Issahaku netted three goals and provided an assist to Jamie Vardy, earning accolades from the team’s manager, Enzo Maresca.
Issahaku’s hat trick marks a significant milestone in his career and puts the Foxes on the brink of promotion. While commending the team’s collective effort, Maresca specifically lauded Issahaku’s outstanding performance.
“His performance was fantastic,” the Italian said on Fatawu. “But I think all the team was very good. We would like to score goals always, but the opponent is always there. We took our chances tonight,” he added.
“I don’t think it was our best performance. I think we had some games in which we played better than tonight, but in the end, most of the time people will judge the result and 5-0 but we analyse the complete performance.”
Issahaku is on loan from Portuguese outfit Sporting Lisbon but Leicester has the option of making the move a permanent one at the end of the season.
