The
youngster was introduced into the game with just ten minutes to end proceedings
but was stupendously swashbuckling, impregnating the stadium with excitement
and joy for the Porcupine Warriors.
The
teenager who joined from Young Apostles FC and a product of Asamoah Gyan’s Baby
Jet U16 Tournament, came on for Emmanuel Gyamfi and within the little space he
lasted, his stats were overly encouraging.
The
fans reaction following his introduction was synonymous to Kotoko beating their
bitterest rivals Hearts of Oak by a 4-0 margin.
The
stadium was completely filled with cheers and shouts as all applauded him and
he lives to the billing.
The
‘stubborn’ youngster showed no respect for the opponent and kept it simple in
the early stages of the game before erecting himself to unleash venom on the
opponents.

won 5 fouls for the Porcupine Warriors within the ten minutes he lasted in the
game and stole the hearts of the fans.
Cudjoe
became one of the youngest players to have debuted in the Ghana Premier League
and the youngest in the history of Asante Kotoko surpassing Dauda Mohammed who
held that record.
